TOKYO, Feb. 21 () -- A recent study by Japanese government revealed on Tuesday that a future quake could hit the northern part of Tokyo Bay with greater intensity than previously thought.A future earthquake could reach 7 on the Japanese intensity scale in the metropolitan, more powerful than upper 6 in the previous estimate, according to a finding by a team with Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology ( MEXT).The epicenter of the assumed quake of magnitude 7.3 might also be shallower than previous estimates, the study said.Hirofumi Hirano, minister of the MEXT, told a news conference that the country needs to enhance its anti-disaster measures.The current government estimate puts the death toll at about 10, 000 and economic damage at some 112 trillion yen (about 1.40 trillion U.S. dollars) based on the assumption a quake registering upper 6 hits the capital on a winter evening, according to Kyodo News.The level of 7 is the maximum of the Japanese intensity scale classification which consists of 10 levels beginning with 0.
WASHINGTON, May 14 () -- The United States reported on Monday "considerable progress" on negotiations as Pakistan was under growing pressure to reopen key supplies for NATO troops in Afghanistan.NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen has warned Pakistan that it may miss a key NATO summit on Afghanistan in Chicago later this month if the supply routes are not reopened in time."Our team is still in Islamabad working on the land route issue. My understanding this morning is that they have made considerable progress but they are still working," State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said at a regular news briefing."They are not yet finished with the Pakistanis," she said. "But we're having a full review with the government of Pakistan on how this transit system works and all of the issues are on the table in that context."Pakistan closed all supply routes after a cross-border NATO air strike killed 24 Pakistani soldiers in November 2011, and has demanded a public apology over the incident for reopening the routes.Washington has so far refused to make an apology, but top American and NATO leaders have pressed Islamabad to reopen key supply routes."There is a full discussion under way about all aspects of this, but we haven't yet come to a conclusion on all the pieces," Nuland said.The decade-old war in Afghanistan will dominate the NATO summit in Chicago slated for May 20-21, and details will be churned out about an exit strategy adopted in November 2010 when NATO leaders last met in Lisbon, Portugal, under which Afghan forces are expected to take the security lead by the end of 2014 when most American and NATO combat troops leave.Rasmussen suggested last Friday that Pakistan could miss out on NATO talks about the future of Afghanistan if it fails to reopen the supply routes."As I mentioned we have actually invited a number of countries from the region, neighbors of Afghanistan, Central Asian countries, Russia, because they provide important transit arrangements to the benefit of our operation," he said at a press conference in Brussels.
