Coming hard times for Japan

One of the survivors of the Chernobyl located in Japan on the occasion of 25th anniversary of the nuclear power plant disaster in Ukraine, provides hard times, so health and economic and social level, people living near nuclear Fukushima Station.
"The crash of Fukushima is like
twin of Chernobyl, "says Pavel Vntovitsenko, 59, who lived in 1986 within 180 km from the Chernobyl nuclear power station in Briasnk, one of the worst affected areas.
"People in Chernobyl faced a collapse of the economy," explains AFP former history professor who has founded a relief organization for victims of the disaster in Ukraine.
"Businesses went bankrupt, agriculture collapsed, no longer work," he says before reporting on health issues. "People in Chernobyl were hit by cancer after the accident. The same can happen in Fukushima.
Twenty-five years after the reactor explosion in Chernobyl, the assessment of health is causing more controversy.

They did not want to approach us
Pavel Vntovitsenko notes first the issue of discrimination. After Chernobyl, "people do not want to catch people coming from infected areas," he says, citing as an example, students from the region of Chernobyl attending classes separately from their peers.
The same problems encountered in Japan, the 80,000 residents of the area within a radius of 20 kilometers from the Fukushima nuclear plant, which has been evacuated.
"The victims of Chernobyl and Fukushima (...) should cooperate to prevent any other nuclear disasters," he says.
The Chernobyl and Fukushima are classified in the same grade of severity scale nuclear and radiological incidents, but are of different nature, mainly because of the level of brain activity that is the case of the Fukushima-time less than ten Chernobyl.
