Li Zaiming accused Japan and the government of Yin Xiyue of deceiving South Korean nationals, saying that Japan's planned discharge of water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant is unsafe. He said, "If Japan advocates for water safety, it should be used for drinking water, agriculture, and industrial water, rather than being dumped in the shared ocean." The Yoon Seok yeung government said, and South Korean citizen Lee Chi seong also said, "If we haven't stepped forward on this point, we should oppose Japan." He also urged the Yoon Seok yeung government to formulate a controversial "Care Law" State Council, and warned the Yoon Seok yeung government not to split the country through veto power.
