● Japanese government made decision to incorporate Dokdo as Japanese territoty during Russia-Japan War.
* Japan's argument : Territory incorporated by Preoccupancy of Ownerless Land Theory ( meaning land with no people living in become owned by person who first discovers it)
●5 years prior to such incorporation of Dokdo by Japan, according to the Korean Imperial Decree No.41, Korea has elevated Ulleungdo which had been subordinate to Uljin Prefecture to Uldo County and issued that Uldo County office shall rule over all of Uldo proper and its dependencies including Dokdo. The decree was published in Central Official Gazette and officially announced Dokdo as Korean territory in regard with international law.

●In 1905 Japanese government argued incorporation of Dokdo as Japan's territory based on Preoccupancy of Ownerless Land Theory under international law. This shows Japan's acknowledgement that Japan did not have ownership of Dokdo before 1905.
●Korea continuously had actual dominance over Dokdo since 1954.
Germany, Sueddeutsche press
- Rather repenting colonial rule over Korea, Japan is leaving alone the claims regarding Japanese ownership of Dokdo which is carried out by minority far-right groups.
●Regrading Japna's claim over possession of Dokdo, Japan needs to accept korea's actual dominance over Dokdo. The reason Japan is continuously bringing up dispute over Dokdo's ownership is because Japan's politicians are not keeping distance from far-right groups but rather Liberal Democratic Party is sumpathizing with them. This is analyzed as since long before Japanese government has been captive of right-wing organizations.
Valery Glushkov, deputy director of Russia's Institute of the History of Sciences and Technology
- Russian Historical documents prove Dokdo as Korean territory.
●As Japan surrendered World War Ⅱ ,Dokdo is not owned by Japan.
