A French company that partially owns and helps operate the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant in China has reached out to the U.S. government urgently asking for help because the nuclear facility is reportedly leaking gas and Chinese officials have allegedly started releasing more and more of the gas on the surrounding area in order to prevent shutting the plant down.
The Biden administration has held multiple meetings over the last week on how to deal with the situation, but they claim that it does not yet pose a “severe” risk to the Chinese population. The French company, Framatome, warned in a letter to the Biden administration that there was an “imminent radiological threat.”
