March 17 (Interfax) - The Russian embassy in Japan has an action plan in the case of emergency situations but is not implementing it so far, Ambassador Mikhail Bely told the Ekho Moskvy radio on Thursday. "If a crisis begins - and the situation is already rather complicated, contradictory and hard to predict - we will naturally use this plan," he said. He described the departure of families of Russian mission employees from Japan as "a forced leave." "The radiation level in Tokyo does not create a problem as yet. If the situation worsens, the Emergency Situations Ministry will provide the evacuation," the ambassador said. From 6,000 to 7,000 Russian citizens are staying in Japan, he said. "All the Russian citizens who think they must go can do that. We are ready to give them full assistance," the ambassador said. The evacuation is possible on several routes, he added. The ambassador said his wife preferred to stay in Tokyo together with him. "Like a Decembrist woman, she wants to stay together with me. I think that is right," he said.
