... Plus One! ＃014 Did PM Abe nominate President Trump for Nobel Peace Prize?

The news of whether Prime Minister Abe of Japan has nominated US President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize is getting wide-spread discussion.

The "Plus One!" tonight is.
"Prime Minister Abe made the nomination? What he aims at is ..."

15 February 2019.

President Trump
"Prime Minister Abe said "Respectfully on behalf of Japan, I am asking them to give you the Nobel Peace Prize". I said "Thank you"."

President Trump talked about his being nominated by Prime Minister Abe for the Nobel Peace Prize.
The reason is ...

President Trump
"Because he (North Korea) had rocket ships, and he had missiles flying over Japan, and they (Japan) had alarms going off, you know that.
Now all of a sudden they feel good, they feel safe. I did that."

It is said that the missiles did not fly over Japan.

Immediately, when Prime Minister Abe was asked about the authenticity of the news in the Diet on 18 February.

Prime Minister Abe
"President Trump decisively responds to solving the North Korean nuclear and missile problems."

While he has commented on the efforts of President Trump, in terms of the nomination.

Prime Minister Abe
"Because the Nobel Prize Committee decides not to disclose nominators and nominees for 50 years,
I would like to refrain from commenting based on this policy."

He declined to speak on this issue.

According to the government officials, it seems that there was a request from the US government, and it seemed that Prime Minister Abe wrote a nomination letter.

In fact this is not the first time President Trump talks about Nobel Prize.

At the speech hall before the first US-North Korea Summit in April 2018.

Supporters
"Nobel! Nobel!"

President Trump
"That's very nice. Thank you. Nobel."

In May 2018, the Republicans of the US Congress sent the nomination letter about President Trump being awarded to the Nobel Prize Committee.
The US media doubted whether North Korea would really denuclearise, and pointed out that he is still far from receiving the award.

One the other hand, this time ...

President Trump
"I probably will never get it, but that's OK."

The US media reacts to the speech of President Trump.

NBC
"Eye-popping".

Washington Post
"Was it South Korea's Moon (but not Prime Minister Abe)?"

In April 2018, President Moon of South Korea nominated President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, so the media questioned whether they are mixed up this time.

Prime Minister Abe has established a honeymoon relationship with President Trump.

Up to now, they had three times of golf diplomacy.
Prime Minister Abe had gifted President Trump a golf club, at that time, President Trump was delighted, saying "it is a beautiful weapon".

And in 2017, when Ivanka-shi, the eldest daughter of President Trump and the Advisor to the President, came to Japan, Prime Minister Abe himself celebrated the birthday of Ivanka-shi, which was an exceptional case.

As for the nomination of the Nobel Prize this time, although President Trump said that he probably will not be awarded, he seemed happy about the nomination.

In the first place, would the selection of Nobel Peace Prize be influenced by the prime minister of a country?

In fact, candidates for the Prize can be nominated by cabinet ministers, Diet members, university professors, and previous Nobel Peace Prize awardees.
Therefore, Prime Minister Abe is eligible to nominate others.

Among these nomination, the Nobel Prize Committee in Norway would make selection.

The nomination for the Prize in 2019 has already closed at the end of January, there are 304 nominations.

As also said by Prime Minister Abe in the Diet, there is a rule that who nominated who cannot be revealed in 50 years.

However this time, that President Trump is nominated becomes exposed.

... Plus One! ＃009 "Tsunami" caused by volcanic eruption

In the past, Japan also had suffered great damage from tsunami caused by volcanic activities.

The situation at that time was remained as picture in ancient documents.
In 1741, tsunami occurred at offshore of Oshima Peninsula, Hokkaido.
The picture sketched the condition that the peninsula had volcanic eruption and the town on the other side of the sea was attacked by tsunami.
It is said that there were over 1,500 victims.

This was Mount Unzen Fugen of Nagasaki Prefecture in 1792.

At that time, because of the volcanic eruption, Mount Mayuyama was greatly damaged.
The large amount of earth and sand flowing into the sea was said to cause a tsunami more than 20m,
which even attacked the Kumamoto Prefecture on the other side of the sea.
Later it was named "Shimabara erupted, Higo affected".

It is said that there were 15,000 victims.

Experts point out that this incident may occur everywhere across Japan.

Yamamoto Takahiro-shi, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology
"As for Japan, with the volcanic activities, there are often tsunami occurring,
so there is risk everywhere, when there are volcanos."

In addition, there is a characteristic which worries the experts.

Yamamoto Takahiro-shi, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology
"What part would collapse, to what extent would materials fall, such damage information is difficult to forecast,
therefore I think that it is difficult to issue the tsunami warning."

While this is not irrelevant to Japan ...

damages caused by volcanic activities include "cinders ejected during volcanic eruption", "pyroclastic flow", "avalanche" if in winter,
this time it is also widely known that there would also be "tsunami".

Once a tsunami occurs, thousands of people may suffer.
Experts say that, in fact, it is tsunami which causes the most victims among volcanic disasters.

There are 111 active volcanos in Japan, according to The Volcanological Society of Japan,
we are the fourth country in the world with the most active volcanos.

It is necessary to pay special attention to the volcanic eruption occurring near sea and lake which may cause tsunami.
