Cairo Declaration
The Cairo Declaration (December 1, 1943) proclaimed that the nations of Great Britain, United States and the Republic of China would continue the war against Japan until Japan's unconditional surrender. It also affirmed that all Chinese territory seized by Japan would be restored to China, that Japan would lose all Pacific islands seized after 1941, and that Korea would become free and independent.
