A Cause Analysis Of The RUSSO-Korean Second Secret Agreement

In the middle and late nineteenth century,with the transition from capitalism to imperialism,East Asia became the arena of international colonialists.North Korea,which is located between China,Japan,and Russia,has become their target.China has repeatedly negotiated with the ambitious Japan in order to maintain sovereignty in North Korea,and the conflict between the two countries in North Korea has become increasingly serious.At the same time,Russia,which had been coveting North Korea for a long time,went south to North Korea,causing the Far East war between Britain and Russia to spread to the Korean peninsula.The traditional Sino-DPRK suzerain-fan relationship has been challenged by the eastern and western powers.In order to consolidate the clan-fan relationship,the Qing government was forced to adjust its policy toward the DPRK,fully intervene in North Korean affairs,and introduced European and American countries,which to a certain extent restrained Japan and Russia.However,with the infiltration of western independence and independent thoughts,under the teachings of the eastern and western powers,North Korea germinated a sense of independence,and the domestic enlightened factions appeared,trying to use Japanese power to escape the control of the Qing government.The Sino-Japanese war broke out as a result of the Jiashencoup.In order to protect itself and gain independence,North Korea chose to ask Russia for help,and in 1885 signed a "first DPRK-Russia secret treaty" with Russia.The matter soon came to an end with the Qing government’s stop.The first DPRK-Russia secret treaty incident has not subsided,and the "second DPRK-Russia secret treaty" in 1886 resurrected.Once the news of North Korea and Russia was spread,it attracted close attention from Britain,the United States,Japan,and other countries.The second DPRK-Russia secret treaty event involved the interests of many countries,related to the survival of the Chinese and Korean patriarchal systems,and met with opposition from many countries.The North Korean government was originally not unified.In addition,the attitude of the supreme ruling group represented by Gao Zong and Min Fei was erratic.Under the intervention of the Qing government,the second DPRK-Russia treaty ended without problems.Although the Qing government effectively prevented the implementation of the "Second DPRK-Russia Secret Treaty" and further strengthened its sovereignty over the Korean suzerain,it actually accelerated the rupture of Sino-DPRK suzerain-fan relations and the Sino-DPRK relations continued to deteriorate.After the Second DPRK-Russia Treaty Incident,Russia paid more attention to North Korean affairs,Japan and Russia’s battle for North Korea intensified,and the United Kingdom actively helped China to consolidate Sino-DPRK patriarchal relations in order to safeguard the interests of the Far East.The biggest spoiler of North Korean affairs.The interests of many countries are intertwined,and the situation in East Asia is more complicated and changeable.
