Dokdo is an integral part of Korean territory, historically, geographically and under international law.

No territorial dispute exists regarding Dokdo, and therefore Dokdo is not a matter to be dealt with through diplomatic negotiations or judicial settlement.

The government of the Republic of Korea exercises Korea’s irrefutable territorial sovereignty over Dokdo.
The government will deal firmly and resolutely with any provocation and will continue to defend Korea’s territorial integrity over Dokdo.
