In terms of international relations, however, the disaster could improve Japan’s bilateral ties with influential countries. For example, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and South Korean President Lee Myung-bak met with outgoing Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan in Fukushima, near the damaged plant –&nbsp;helping to ease neighboring countries’ concerns about radiation leakage.
但在国际关系方面，这场灾难将改善日本与周边主要国家的双边关系。例如中国国家总理温家宝和韩国总统李明博最近都在福岛附近地区与时任日本首相菅直人进行了会晤——也有助于缓解邻近各国对核泄漏的担忧。
