Claim: Noktundo is a territory of South Korea (Noktundo, 2024-10-09)
Evidence (2024-09-18): Noktundo (Korean: 록둔도/녹둔도) was an island in the delta of the Tumen River on the border between Primorsky Krai, Russia and North Korea.[1] The area of the island was 32 square kilometres (12 sq mi).[2][3] Noktundo had been Korean territory since the 15th century.[3] The Jurchens took notice of this. In 1587 there was a battle fought on this island between the local Koreans and the invading Jurchens from nearby Russia. At first, the Jurchens successfully sacked the island and captured 160 Koreans as prisoners. As they crossed the river back to their camp with the prisoners, the famed Korean general Yi Sun-Shin, chased after the invaders and rescued 50 Koreans and defended the island. With his army, he later infiltrated the nearby Jurchen army camp, and captured their leader alive.[4] [...] - ^ Проблема острова Ноктундо в средствах массовой информации Южной Кореи [The problem of the Noktundo island in the media in South Korea] (in Russian). ru.apircenter.org.

Evidence (2024-08-23): Noktundo [edit]Noktundo, a former island (now effectively a peninsula) at the mouth of the Tumen, has been a boundary contention between Russia and North Korea.[8] The Qing Dynasty ceded the island to Russia as part of the Primorsky Maritimes (East Tartary) in the 1860 Treaty of Peking.[8] In 1990, the former Soviet Union and North Korea signed a border treaty which made the border run through the center of the river, leaving territory of the former island on Russian side. South Korea refuses to acknowledge the treaty and demanded that Russia return the territory to Korea.[9] [...] - ^ "The problem of the Noktundo island in the media in South Korea (Проблема острова Ноктундо в средствах массовой информации Южной Кореи)" (in Russian). ru.apircenter.org.

Claim: Noktundo is a territory of South Korea (Noktundo, 2024-10-09)
Evidence (2014-08-13): The Dokdo Islands also known as Liancourt Rocks is a group of islets in the eastern part of South Korea composed of two main islands Seodo and Dongdo, and smaller rock outcrops in the East Sea of Korea or Sea of Japan. Currently, it is administered by South Korea as part of Ulleung County, North Gyeongsang Province. Both South Korea and Japan lay claim to this islands based on geographical, historical, and international law. [...] After the defeat of Japan in 1945 from Allied Powers, Korea gained its independence after 35 years of Japanese occupation. The Allied Powers applied Directive SCAPIN-677 and the Japanese government acknowledges that Dokdo is excluded from Japanese territories. On January 18, 1952 South Korea announced the administration of Dokdo Islands and inclusion within Korean territory. The continuing claim of Japan on Dokdo Islands since 1940's even after independence of Korea is a violation of the Korean sovereignty. Japanese initiative to settle the issue on the International Court of Justice has no basis since historically and geographically it is a Korean territory and has only been a part of Japanese territory in the past due to its colonization of the Korean peninsula.

Evidence (2012-08-10): South Korea calls it Dokdo, which means solitary islands. Japan calls it Takeshima, which means bamboo islands. And it has also been known as the Liancourt Rocks, named by French whalers after their ship in 1849.

Evidence (2022-03-06): Yi Sun-shin is pardoned for leading the victory by the white army in this battle. Nokdundo Island disappeared from history until the late 19th century. This period coincides with the time when the Qing Dynasty and Joseon paid the border area as an uninhabited land. However, Roh Gye-hyun, a former professor at Korea Communications University, explained, "It is clear that Nokdundo Island was the territory of Joseon even at that time." Nokdundo Island was the living base for Koreans from the beginning of the Joseon Dynasty until Stalin's forced migration in 1937. Now, traces of Koreans' lives such as Yeonja millstones and house sites are found throughout the estimated Nokdundo Island on land. Russia has designated the mouth of the Tuman River around the old Nokdundo Island as a military area and controls the access of the general public.-Photo courtesy of the Tuman River Land Use Research Team ● The problem of becoming an "island not an island" due to terrain changes is that the water stream in the north of Nokdundo Island gradually became thinner due to frequent flooding of the Tuman River, leading to Nokdundo Island and coastal waters.

It is officially called the Republic of Korea and its capital and largest city is Seoul. Most recently, South Korea has been in the news due to growing conflicts between it and its northern neighbor, North Korea. The two went to war in the 1950s and there have been years of hostilities between the two nations but on November 23, 2010, North Korea attacked South Korea.

Evidence (2023-12-01): Alluding to the original ownership of the island Noktundo to Korea, South Korean Media is drawn attention to the fact that in the area of the island Noktundo has lived Korean people for a long time. Thus, in the report of 1883 to King Gojong O Yoon Jung reported about Koreans living on the island of Noktundo, which respect the customs of Korea and did not recognize the Russian traditions. In the report is noted that island of Noktundo is a territory of Korea. Korean emissaries Kim Gwang Hoon and Sin Song Ok, the same year designed in the area of the island Noktundo to assess the current situation on the Russian-Korean border reported that, on the island lived 113 Korean families a total number of which is 822 people.

Claim: Noktundo is a territory of South Korea (Noktundo, 2024-10-09)
Evidence (2024-09-21): It was Joseon territory for 400 years since the reign of King Sejong , but after the Second Opium War ended with the defeat of the Qing Dynasty, it was incorporated into the Russian Empire in accordance with the Treaty of Beijing signed between the Qing Dynasty and the Russian Empire in 1860. North Korea recognized Noktundo as Soviet territory in accordance with the 1990 Soviet-North Korean Border Treaty. This trend has continued since the collapse of the Soviet Union, and Russia , which succeeded the Soviet Union, now governs Noktundo, and Russian border guards guard the island. [...] In conclusion, Noktundo Island is recognized as Russian territory from an international law perspective, and there is insufficient evidence and justification to support the South Korean government's claim of sovereignty. From a practical perspective, Noktundo Island is nothing more than a wasteland of low value, and it is not worth trying to recover it by causing friction with Russia, with which South Korea maintains a good economic and diplomatic relationship. However, based on the recently raised Soduman River boundary, the area of Noktundo Island is approximately 400㎢, which is 12.5 times the existing boundary, which is almost the same as the area secured by Saemangeum , the largest reclamation project in South Korea (409㎢), and it is about 2/3 the size of Seoul, and it should be kept in mind that the area bordering the sea has also increased, which can help secure territorial waters .

Evidence (2018-05-09): The dynamics and volatility of the border region also made earlier geographic records hardly comprehensive, let alone entirely reliable. Over time tribes migrated, topographical marks changed, and towns and garrisons relocated. For instance, between the early and late fifteenth century the locations of the Jurchen tribe led by Möngke Temür and the border garrisons of Hoeryŏng were recorded quite inconsistently in the Annals of the Chosŏn Dynasty due to the gradual northward extension of the Chosŏn territory and the retreat of the Jurchen.Footnote 13 Nokt’undo, a small island of approximately 32 square kilometers originally located at the estuary of the Tumen River, exemplifies the challenge of topographic changes. It had been Korean territory since the late fifteenth century. But, with constant changes in the canal and sand sediment, the island gradually adjoined the north shore and eventually became part of the Qing side of the riverbank. When Russia forced the Qing to yield the territory of Outer Manchuria, including 15 kilometers of the Tumen River estuary, in 1860, former Nokt’undo Island was transferred to Russia altogether. [...] No doubt the Chosŏn cartographers in the late eighteenth century were not in consensus on the local hydrology and topography. That said, compared to the maps produced beforehand, these post-Mukedeng maps revealed a new vision of territory: a Korean space must have a clear-cut boundary, which could be visualized by Mt. Paektu, the stele, the barriers, and the border rivers.
Claim: Noktundo is a territory of South Korea (Noktundo, 2024-10-09)
Evidence (2022-12-19): The status of Dokdo remained controversial after the Peace Treaty was signed in September 1951. Five months later, on 18 January 1952, Korean President Syngman Rhee issued a presidential proclamation that created the "Peace Line," a territorial boundary averaging 60 miles off the coast of Korea, which explicitly identified Dokdo as a Korean territory. Japan protested this Peace Line and declared that it did not recognize Korea’s claim to Dokdo. [...] According to the Japanese view of the negotiations, the general language that remained in the agreement covering all disputes, which says that they are to be resolved "through arbitration in accordance with the procedure agreeable to both countries," preserves their position on Dokdo. But Korea has rejected the idea that Dokdo is covered by this side agreement, referring to this notion as "a far-fetched construction of the instruments," with Korean Foreign Minister Lee Dong-won stating that "since Takeshima/Tokdo was not an object of dispute, it could not be covered by the exchange document." Korea’s position has always been that Dokdo is inherent Korean territory, and thus that the island cannot be viewed as an issue either in the treaty or before the ICJ. [...] Concerning boundary agreements, South Korea expressed its concerns regarding North Korea’s boundary treaties with China and Russia and is contending that, after reunification, the Unified Korea should discuss the boundary issues of Baekdusan (Mt. Baekdu) with China. Similarly, South Korea proposes a discourse regarding the Gando Convention with Russia on the issue of Noktundo.

Evidence (2022-06-23): Yi was credited for claiming back from Jurchen invaders the island Noktundo in the delta of the Tumen River on the border between modern-day Primorsky Krai, Russia and Korea. Noktundo was handed over to Russia by the Qing dynasty in 1860 without Korea’s participation in the deal. [...] At the Battle of Myeongnyang on Oct. 25, 1597, Yi, using just 13 Panokseon battleships, fought the Japanese Navy near the island of Jindo, off the southwestern corner of the Korean Peninsula, decimating some 330 Japanese warships.

Evidence (2024-10-09): Indo-European, Ural-Altaic, and diverse other peoples have occupied what is now the territory of Russia since the 2nd millennium bce, but little is known about their ethnic identity, institutions, and activities. In ancient times, Greek and Iranian settlements appeared in the southernmost portions of what is now Ukraine. Trading empires of that era seem to have known and exploited the northern forests—particularly the vast triangular-shaped region west of the Urals between the Kama and Volga rivers—but these contacts seem to have had little lasting impact. Between the 4th and 9th centuries ce, the Huns, Avars, Goths, and Magyars passed briefly over the same terrain, but these transitory occupations also had little influence upon the East Slavs, who during this time were spreading south and east from an area between the Elbe River and the Pripet Marshes. In the 9th century, as a result of penetration into the area from the north and south by northern European and Middle Eastern merchant adventurers, their society was exposed to new economic, cultural, and political forces.
