STATEMENT OF SUPPORT FOR PEACE ISLAND
We are deeply concerned about the construction of a new naval base in Gangjeong village on Jeju Island in South Korea. For more than a decade now, residents there have voiced strong opposition to the new base, yet the government has answered their protests with violence and a refusal to reconsider the militarization of the island.
In 1948, under the auspices of a US military government, more than 30,000 Jeju islanders—nearly one of every nine inhabitants—were brutally murdered after they rose up to protest the division of Korea. Although the US government was at least partly responsible, it has never acknowledged nor apologized to the families of the victims. In 2003, South Korean President Noh Moo-hyun apologized, and Jeju was later officially declared a ¡°peace island.¡±
Jeju is strategically located in the Northeast Asia triangle between Russia, China, and Japan. According to the South Korea-US Mutual Defense Agreement, all Korean military bases can be used by the US. Since the naval base is being built to accommodate Aegis class battleships, Jeju will be placed on the frontlines of any future US-China conflict.
UNESCO declared Jeju Island a World Heritage Site because of its natural beauty. Building a naval base there will pollute its pristine environment, an important asset belonging to all humankind.
Over the past decade, the South Korean government has resorted to force to impose the base upon islanders opposed to it, and many citizens have been arrested or injured. We are very concerned for people¡¯s safety. We call upon the South Korean government to thoroughly investigate this matter and to prevent the future use of violence against protesting citizens.
We send our respect to the people of Jeju and support them in their struggle to keep their island a demilitarized zone. We support the non-violent resistance of residents of Gangjeong village and support their call for the immediate cancellation of naval base construction.
