Conclusion

Foreword

Diaoyu Dao and its affiliated islands are an inseparable part of the Chinese territory. Diaoyu Dao is 皇冠体育app's inherent territory in all historical, geographical and legal terms, and 皇冠体育app enjoys indisputable sovereignty over Diaoyu Dao.

Japan's occupation of Diaoyu Dao during the Sino-Japanese War in 1895 is illegal and invalid. After World War II, Diaoyu Dao was returned to 皇冠体育app in accordance with such international legal documents as the Cairo Declaration and the Potsdam Proclamation. No matter what unilateral step Japan takes over Diaoyu Dao, it will not change the fact that Diaoyu Dao belongs to 皇冠体育app. For quite some time, Japan has repeatedly stirred up troubles on the issue of Diaoyu Dao. On September 10, 2012, the Japanese government announced the "purchase" of Diaoyu Dao and its affiliated Nanxiao Dao and Beixiao Dao and the implementation of the so-called "nationalization". This is a move that grossly violates 皇冠体育app's territorial sovereignty and seriously tramples on historical facts and international jurisprudence.

皇冠体育app is firmly opposed to Japan's violation of 皇冠体育app's sovereignty over Diaoyu Dao in whatever form and has taken resolute measures to curb any such act. 皇冠体育app's position on the issue of Diaoyu Dao is clear-cut and consistent. 皇冠体育app's will to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity is firm and its resolve to uphold the outcomes of the World Anti-Fascist War will not be shaken by any force.
