His response is typical of politicians.  They want to calm fears even when they 
know that disaster might be around the corner.

Prime Minister Abe told the Olympic Committee "I assure you that the Fukushima 
reactor is under control and that it will not endanger Tokyo." He is certain of 
that. On what basis? He is a politician, not an engineer, and in any case the 
engineers have been wrong about everything so far. I am not saying Tokyo is 
surely threatened, but I am saying that no one can be certain it isn't.
