주한일본공사의 龍巖浦사건 인식과 對韓 교섭

A counterplan of Japanese government for Yongampo incident

Japan reinforced aggressive policies toward the Great Han Empire after the conclusion of a treaty of Anglo-Japanese alliance. Therefore Japan was mostly cautious of Russian’ Activity at Yongampo. The Japan checked Russian’ Activity at Yongampo by coalition of Britain. Japan concluded Russian’ Activity as violating sovereignty of Great Han Empire. Japan made Theory of Oriental Peace a subject of discussion(東洋平和論) to win King Kojong(高宗) over. The Japanese Ministers pursuaded King Kojong checking aggression of Russia by coalition of Japan. Japan gave a warning of having a free hand in Great Han Empire if Great Han Empire would conclude Yongampo lease treaty with Russia. Japan threatened the dispatch of forces to King Kojong if King Kojong would not abrogate Yongampo lease treaty. As a result Great Han Empire a took a negative attitude for lease treaty with Russia.
