Will UN ever get it right on nuclear? (Answer: probably not.)
"The president of the UN General Assembly, Nassir Abdulaziz Al- Nasser, (pictured) said that Fukushima was a "stark reminder" that ensuring nuclear safety requires the maintenance of the highest nuclear safety and security standards, as well as long-term disaster preparedness and strong international cooperation."
Actually, no, "ensuring nuclear safety" actualy "requires" closing all nuclear power plants worldwide, and safeguarding the waste on site until such a time when (if) a better solution is found - something that has eluded humankind since the dawn of the Atomic Age and may never be resolved.
