1. The Government of the Republic of Korea expresses deep concern over the adoption of resolution by the Japanese Parliament containing unjust claims to Dokdo, which is an integral part of Korean territory, and claims concerning the remarks of the President of the ROK and urges the Japanese Parliament to withdraw the resolution immediately.

2. Japan should no longer reiterate unjust claims to the territory of the Republic of Korea but make further efforts to pave the way for future-oriented relations between the Republic of Korea and Japan, based on a correct understanding of history.
