III. Korean Problems With Other Asian Nations. A. Japan.
1. Fisheries. The position of the Republic of Korea Government has been to insist on the recognition of the so-called "Peace Line." The United States Government has consistently taken the position that the unilateral proclamation of sovereignty over the seas is illegal and that the fisheries dispute between Japan and Korea should be settled on the basis of a fisheries conservation agreement that would protect the interests of both countries. 4. Ownership of Dokto Island. When the Treaty of Peace with Japan was being drafted, the Republic of Korea asserted its claims to Dokto but the United States concluded that they remained under Japanese sovereignty and the Island was not included among the Islands that Japan released from its ownership under the Peace Treaty. The Republic of Korea has been confidentially informed of the United States position regarding the islands but our position has not been made public. Though the United States considers that the islands are Japanese territory, we have declined to interfere in the dispute. Our position has been that the dispute might properly be referred to the International Court of Justice and this suggestion has been informally conveyed to the Republic of Korea.[1] - ^ "The United States Government does not feel that the Treaty should adopt the theory that Japan"s acceptance of the Potsdam Declaration on August 9, 1945 constituted a formal or final renunciation of sovereignty by Japan over the areas dealt with in the Declaration."（1ページ目12行目-2ページ目2行目）
- ^ U.S. policy on the Dokdo/Takeshima Island issue has been and continues to be that the United States does not take a position on either Korea"s claim or Japan"s claim to the island. Our hope is that the two countries will resolve the issue amicably. 在韓大使館米国発表

In view of the fact that such persons had the status of Japanese nationals it would not soon appropriate that they obtain compensation for damage to their property as a result of the war."（3ページ目14行目-4ページ目4行目）
