福岛五县食品解禁与台日关系走势

The Lifting of Ban over Food from Five Prefectures such as Fukushima and the Trend of Taiwan-Japan Relations

2011年“3.11”大地震后,台湾禁止受到严重核污染的日本福岛五县食品输台。马英九当局后期,福岛五县食品解禁成为台日间日趋尖锐的焦点所在。蔡英文上台3年来,虽然台日关系在政治往来、双边贸易等方面有一定程度的提升,但始终没有实现福岛五县食品解禁。2018年底,台湾地区“反核食公投”获得通过,更使该问题陷入困顿。福岛五县食品解禁不克,使台湾加入CPTPP的愿望落空,随着中日关系战略性缓和与中日关系中的台湾变量趋于稳定,当前台日关系结构性矛盾交织,由以往相互过高“期待”,逐渐回落到维护利益的现实层面。

Taiwan has banned food import from Japan's five prefectures such as Fukushima for the serious nuclear pollution in Fukushima after the great earthquake in 2011.since the later period of Ma Ying-jeou's Administration,the issue of lifting the ban has become the focus.After Tsai Ing-wen's took office,there has been some promotion of political exchanges and trade between Taiwan and Japan,however,the ban has not ever lifted."The Anti-nuclear Food Referendum"in 2018 makes the issue more complicated,and there has been less possibility for Taiwan to join the CPTPP without lifting the ban.In the context of recovery of Sino-Japanese relations and the gradual stabilization of Taiwan as variable in the Sino-Japanese relations,the Taiwan-Japan relations are faced with structural contradictions,shifting from the high expectations from both Japan and Taiwan to the realist demands of safeguard the interests of both sides.
