As meticulously documented at our Website https://www.sdh-fact.com/CL02_1/77_S4.pdf,
the Senkaku Islands are an inherent territory of Japan. The five pieces of
evidence presented there were provided by the Chinese themselves, either through
official documents, the state newspaper or maps authorized by the state.

The Chinese government claims sovereignty over the Islands by showing historical
documents, but they are invalid from view point of modern international law
regarding territory sovereignty. They say “Senkaku” appears in old maps.
But even the most recent official Qing statutory encyclopedia Qing Huidian,
“Senkaku” is not mentioned in spite of the fact that all of the islands
associated with Taiwan are described therein.

China even presents a fabricated rescript of Xi tai hou. This paper exhaustively
reviews all of these facts.
