China to ‘Gradually’ Lift Ban on Japanese Seafood Imports
[Beijing, China] – In a significant move, China has announced that it will "gradually" lift its ban on Japanese seafood imports, following a three-year embargo imposed in the wake of the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster.
The decision comes after a meeting between Chinese and Japanese officials, who discussed the lifting of restrictions on Japanese seafood exports, including fish, squid, and other seafood products. The move is seen as a major breakthrough in improving bilateral relations between the two nations.
