On November 27, 1943, on the final day of the First Cairo Conference, the three leaders of the United States, F. Roosevelt, Britain, and Chiang Kai-shek of the Republic of China, signed this declaration on the basic aims of the war against Japan, and it was announced on December 1 of the same year. The main points are as follows: (1) the three countries "agreed for future military action against Japan", (2) the three countries "expressed their determination to exert relentless pressure on the barbaric enemy", (3) "to restrain and punish" Japanese aggression, but none of the three countries had any intention of territorial expansion, (4) the divestment of all islands in the Pacific which Japan had seized or occupied after World War I, as well as the return to the Republic of China of Manchuria, Formosa, the Penghu Islands, and other islands, and the expulsion of Japan from all territories which Japan had seized by violence and greed, (5) the determination to liberate and make independent Korea, and (6) for the above purposes, the three countries made it clear that they would continue to act for a long time in cooperation with other nations at war with Japan until Japan's unconditional surrender. Among these, the policy on Japan's territorial issue was incorporated into the Potsdam Declaration in 1945 and accepted by Japan.
