The Pacific Ocean is Not Japan's Sewer !

If Indian members and American gov't think those nuclear wasted water are so safe, then just dump it either in Indian ocean or West Coast of the United States. I think the gov't of China, Russia and South Korea do not mind to pay for the transport cost.
It will reach the West Coast, eventually. Just like it did after the disaster. Now some Indian here says it's perfectly safe then Japan has the moral obligation to ship it to the Indian coast and dump the waste which is deemed harmless. There's no objection if Indians start consuming nuclear contaminated seafood.

The safety of dumping radioactive waste and the concerns of the above mentioned nations intersects if the dumping is done in a region which will have a direct effect on exploitation of resources by the aforementioned nations. That's what their concern is essentially stemming from.

If dumped in a remote corner in the middle of nowhere, it will be safe enough to do so and the claims that it might affect the entire Pacific ocean seem far fetched and contrary to known data on the subject.

Also, do you disagree that to quote international laws and to speak to uphold them one must not selectively choose aspects of it as per convenience. it's either all of it or none of it.

I would also recommend reading up on water, radiation and how the two interact. It's always better to learn, make mistakes and then come to a conclusion rather than agree on a topic simply because of opinions of those who you consider superior say so.
Radioactive trash is radioactive, The Japan who is witnessing Nuke aftermath birth defects and other biological hazards in Hiroshima and Nagasaki is going to lecture world on ”safe disposal of radioactive waste into an ocean”? I mean its stupid to support it, it is not plastic, even an oil spill into the ocean causes panic among countries, here we’re talking about radioactive material being dumped in an open ocean.
