20,000 Attend Anti-Nuclear Plant Rally Held by Zenroren


Some 20,000 people participated in “A Rally to Call for Zero Nuclear Plant” on July 2. The rally held in Tokyo’s Meiji Park was called for by Ikuro Anzai, Tetsuya Iida, Etsuko Ichihara, Toshie Negishi, Shuntaro Hida, Reiko Yukawa, as well as Actress Sayuri Yoshinaga. More than 70 farmers from Japan Family Farmers Movement “Nominren” of Fukushima Prefecture joined and called for support. Japan Communist Party Chairman Kazuo Shii addressed to the rally before the message from Social Democratic Party of Japan Chair Mizuho Fukushima was read out. We hope that the politicians and the people of Japan would join hands in the anti-nuclear plant movement beyond their political boundaries and ideologies. By K. See UStream video by JCJ.


全労連などの脱原発集会に2万人参加
7月2日に東京・明治公園で開かれた「原発ゼロをめざす7・2緊急行動」に2万人が参加した。安斎育郎、飯田哲也、市原悦子、根岸季衣、肥田舜太郎、湯川れい子各氏らが呼びかけ、吉永小百合さんも賛同した。全労連などで構成された実行委員会の主催。福島の農家などの発言が続いた。福島県農民連からは70名以上が参加し、農産物を販売しつつ支援を訴えた。共産党の志位委員長があいさつし、社民党の福島党首のメッセージが読み上げられた。脱原発運動が政治潮流を超えて相互に相乗りし大きく合流していくことを期待したい。(K)・JCJによるユーストリーム動画
