The Olympics next year will be held in Tokyo, Japan, but today (24th) is just one year away. However, Japan has marked Dokdo on his map of Japan on the official website as if it were his own land. Our government has strongly protested, and Japan has refused to change it.

It is the site of the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Organizing Committee to introduce the torch relay route and schedule along with the Japanese map.

I have drawn a small but obviously Dokdo Island to the north of the Oki Islands in Shimane Prefecture.

The nomination was not a few, but it marked Dokdo as a territory.

In addition to the indication of Dokdo, there is also an expression called the Sea of ​​Japan as the Sea of ​​Japan.

After confirming this fact, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs urged the Japanese Embassy in Seoul to strongly protest and promptly correct it.

When the Pyeongchang Olympic Games last year protested at the Olympics on the Japanese peninsula against Dokdo painted in the Korean peninsula, the Dokdo was removed.

But this time the Japanese government rejected the request of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

[Sugaya Yoshihide / Chief Cabinet Secretary: We communicated that we can not accept Dokdo (Takeshima) territory and the East Sea (Sea of ​​Japan) in our view.]

Japan yesterday urged the Russian military to attack the territorial sea of ​​Dokdo and to warn the fighters of their fighter planes.

After Japan's retaliatory export control measures, the issue of sovereignty over Dokdo is spreading, and conflicts between Korea and Japan are spreading all over the world.
