r0ckamped Aug 11st 2012, 09:00pmTOKYO - Japan said on Saturday it will take its long-running islands
territorial dispute with South Korea
to the International Court of
Justice, after South Korean
President Lee Myung-bak made a
surprise visit to the islands this week. The islands, known as Takeshima
in Japan and Dokdo in South Korea,
lie equidistant from the two
mainlands and are believed to
contain frozen natural gas deposits
potentially worth billions of dollars. Lee became the first South Korean
leader on Friday to make the trip
to the islands, which have been a
persistent irritant in relations
between the two countries. "Japan decided to act to peacefully
solve the issue by bringing it to
International Court of Justice," a
spokesperson for Japan's Foreign
Minister Koichiro Gemba said via an
e-mailed statement on Saturday. "Having seen Republic of Korea
take such an unacceptable action,
we believe that letting Japan's case
on Takeshima known to the world,
through ICJ, is more important
than holding back, giving consideration for the whole Japan-
ROK relations." The timing and content of the case
will need to be worked out, but
action will be taken in the "not so
distant a future", he said. Japan recalled its ambassador to
South Korea on Friday after Lee
visited disputed islands. Officials in South Korea said the
visit was meant to highlight the
islands' importance as a natural
reserve and was not aimed at
stirring up trouble. Lee travelled to a larger island
called Ulleungdo off the Korean
peninsula's east coast, which is not
disputed, and made the final leg
under tight security with military
and coast guard escort. Reuters
