(Reuters) – The head of the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog said on Friday that one or two of the team of international experts behind its report green-lighting Japan’s release of treated radioactive water from the crippled Fukushima plant may have expressed concerns.
Asked if there was any disagreement among the experts behind the report released on Tuesday, Rafael Grossi told Reuters in an interview:
“I hear it being said…but then again, what we have published is scientifically flawless.”
The international team of experts that produced the report included 11 experts from Argentina, Australia, Canada, China, France, the Marshall Islands, South Korea, Russia, Britain, the United States and Vietnam.
