Crimes of Japan, Sworn Enemy of Korean Nation, Seen through History
Pyongyang, March 25 (KCNA) -- The Japanese imperialists coercively cooked up the "Ulsa (1905) Five-point Treaty" to turn Korea into their colony.
In November 1905 Hirobumi Ito, chieftain of the invasion of Korea, put his feet on Korea and met with Emperor Kojong several times to force him to unconditionally accept the draft "treaty" already worked out by Japan.
In order to cook up the "treaty", the Japanese imperialists put military pressure by mobilizing a large number of troops and, at the same time, sought to attain their criminal purpose by luring ministers of the feudal Korean government to Japan's legation in Korea to threaten and blackmail them.
Taking the opportunity of a meeting of Korean ministers on the "treaty" held at the imperial palace, the Japanese imperialists encircled the palace with armed forces and forced those ministers to approve the "treaty", threatening them with bayonet.
In such way they declared that the "treaty" was concluded. And to give semblance of "legality" to it, they stole the seal of the Korean foreign minister and stamped it on the document by themselves.
After all, the "Ulsa Five-Point Treaty" is a fraudulent international document as it completely lacked the form of a treaty document because of having neither signature of the Korean emperor nor the seal of state, major procedures in putting any treaty in effect.
The then emperor Kojong, in his autograph letters to the rulers of different countries in January 1906, said that he did neither admit the "Ulsa Five-point Treaty" from the very outset nor stamp the seal of the state. And he sent three secret agents to the Second International Peace Conference held in Hague in June next year to bring into light the illegality and nullification of the "treaty".
In 1963, the United Nations Commission on International Law in its report to the UN General Assembly defined the four treaties in the world, including the said "treaty", as invalid since they were concluded under coercion.
The Italian newspaper Il Manifesto disclosed that the "Ulsa Five-point Treaty", cooked up by the Japanese imperialists, is the largest fraudulent document ever in the world history.
With this "treaty", an illegal and invalid document, the Japanese imperialists came to seize the diplomatic rights of Korea and turn it into their colony. -0-
