Pyongyang, February 27 (KCNA) -- Japan, oblivious of its crime-woven past, has an eye on other's territory again.
It set "Takeshima Day" (February 22) and claims that Tok Island is a "part of its territory".
As well known, Japan, not satisfied with naming Tok Island "Takeshima"
at will, instigated the Shimane Prefectural Assembly to set the
"Takeshima Day" out of the greed for other's territory in March 2005 and
stages a farce for dominium over the island every year. A rally, the
14th of its kind, took place on Feb.22 in the presence of government
authorities, which is a shameless distortion of history and
gangster-like move to usurp other's territory.
Tok Island is an inalienable territory of the Korean nation.
The Korean people were the first to discover the island one thousand and
hundreds of years ago and incorporate it into its territory. It was
Korea that reconfirmed the dominium over the island on the basis of
international laws and declared it at home and abroad for the first
time.
The Cairo Declaration and the Potsdam Declaration and memorandums Nos.
677 and 1033 signed and issued by the General Headquarters of the Allied
Powers during and after the Second World War evidently confirm the
legal status of Tok Island as a territory of Korea, whereas Japan's
assertion of its dominium over the island has no justification to
convince others from the geographical, historical and legal points of
view.
Clear is the aim of Japan that persistently galvanizes domestic and
international public opinion under the pretexts of "Takeshima Day" and
"dominium" over the island.
It is to infuse the Japanese people with the aggressive fever just as
the Japanese imperialists infected them with fascism in the last
century, blur the international community's fair understanding of
territory and thus provide conditions, environment and opportunity
favorable for reinvasion.
It is evidenced by the fact that Japan set as "Takeshima Day" February
22 when it illegally put Tok Island under its jurisdiction over one
hundred and ten years ago, and by a sentence of its relevant law that
calls for "pushing ahead with a campaign for quick acquisition of
dominium over Takeshima and building up public opinion on the issue of
Takeshima".
Worse still, Japan is keen on ill-boding military moves like arms
buildup and the drill based on the simulated conditions of recapturing
remote islands, while inciting hostility towards the Korean nation and
attempting to revise the Constitution. All the facts go to prove that
Japan is going to reinvade Korea under the pretext of the issue of
"dominium over Tok Island".
In case Japan, seized with revanchist ambition for supremacy, is going
to realize its ambition for usurping Tok Island through physical action,
it will be certainly developed into a war to conquer the whole of Asia.
Japanese reactionaries' assertion of "dominium" over Tok Island is, indeed, a prelude to reinvasion.
But Japan is seriously mistaken.
The Korean nation is by no means a small and weak one as it was in the past.
The international community keeps a close watch on the moves of the
Japanese reactionaries who try to bring catastrophic disaster to
mankind.
If Japan persists in its moves to seize Tok Island, oblivious of a
lesson from history, requirement of the times and international
anti-Japanese feelings, it will meet only ruin. -0
