Japan is dealing with issues of radioactive water leak from the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant caused by the great east Japan earthquake and tsunami in March 2011.
Despite its issues the country faces today, Tokyo bid organizers gave an explanation of the situation.
Japan prime minister, Shinzo Abe, says the situation in Fukushima is ?under control? and will not affect the city for its 2020 Olympic games.
Hiroshi Hase, former Olympic wrestler and member of the Japanese parliament says that there is a very limited area where contaminated water is leaking out in the port.
He explains that the gist of the strategy is to monitor the contaminated water, remove it, and contain it.
