It is our essential task to meet peaceful unification between the South the North. It is a distinct fact that peace policy is a premise condition for peaceful unification in the Korean peninsula, however the South and the North always have been hostile each other with the situation of neither war or peace. At military Armistice Commission 354th Meeting in 12 Sep., 1974, the North claimed that the South intruded their maritime border violating Armistice Agreement, and the South denied the allegation. As the North persisted jurisdiction of 5 Northwest Islands, the South reinforced defense readiness of the Islands. And, it caused a strain for a while. For the South, the military strategic value of 5 Northwest Islands which hold geological importance in Korean peninsula have a precondition to secure. On the other hand, for the North, the Islands become primary obstacle to invade west coast of the South. The Islands are located in very important area to monitor Ground-Sea-Air military activities placed at northwest of the North and even northeast of China. Also, they provide sea control priority performing as military pre-positioned base by securing international trading sea route. We can draw following 4 facts emphasizing the possibility that 5 Northwest Islands become decisive battlefield as well as 155 miles of armistice line. First, 5 Northwest Islands perform as forward base with role of closing down North Korean sea, collecting accurate information by monitoring all military activities from ground-sea-air, and providing early warning for North Korea's invasion. Second, establishing the sea patrolling limit line which connects the territorial water line of 5 Northwest Islands shuts down North Korea's maritime activities. It denies enemy emphibious forces' departure from the attacking staging base, suppresses the west sea fleet's activity area and intercepts the reciprocal support with the east sea fleet. So it divides North Korean Naval capability into two parts. Third, if all-out war breaks out by N. Korea's misjudgement, by providing flexible combat power displaying capable staging base, we can strike and neutralize North Korea's Pyeongyang and major bases in the frontline. Forth, it indirectly cut offs or denies marine transportation from China including Shanghai to North Korea via the west sea. Because above advantages for us will work reversely to North Korea, it is sure that enemy will attack the 5 Northwest Islands. So, we can not exclude the possibility of North Korean's 5 Northwest Islands blockade or occuphing by force. We can derive following three pervasive effects based on the Northwest 5 Islands' political and economical value and the security of 5 Islands. First, it will become not only the island residents' problem but it will unsteady all people's sentiment. So it will decrease the people's will. Also, North Korea will break up the current order, induce South korea to the negotiation table and present opinions which are politically profitable to them. So South korea's position in the international political stage be reduced. Because of the lessened position of South Korea, it will greatly affect the international trade by the trading countries' interruption. Second, the sea area of 5 Northwest Islands is the nest of people's living. In the past, it was a golden fishing ground for South Korea's fishery industry, but now only a near sea fishing is possible after fishing limitation line was established. Also, North Korea treats this fishing area very importantly because of their economic difficulties. Third, it is related to the acquirement of sea resources. South and North Korea occupy almost even portion of which located direct southward from the 5 Northwest Islands and if a continental shelf issue emerged on the surface, China also will show very kin interest on that issue. Especially, this area is blessed with the oil and natural gas, it is possible to cause the economical interest conflict in the tinternational society.
