中華民國政府對日宣戰布告
（1941年12月9日）

日本軍閥夙以征服亞洲，並獨霸太平洋為其國策。數年以來，中國不顧一切犧牲，繼續抗戰，其目的不僅在保衛中國之獨立生存，實欲打破日本之侵略野心，維護國際公法、正義及人類福利與世界和平，此中國政府屢經聲明者也。中國為酷愛和平之民族，過去四年餘之神聖抗戰，原期侵略者之日本於遭受實際之懲創後，終能反省。在此時期，各友邦亦極端忍耐，冀其悔禍，俾全太平洋之和平，得以維持。不料強暴成性之日本，執迷不悟，且更悍然向我英、美諸友邦開釁，擴大其戰爭侵略行動，甘為破壞全人類和平與正義之戎首，逞其侵略無厭之野心。舉凡尊重信義之國家，鹹屬忍無可忍。茲特正式對日宣戰，昭告中外，所有一切條約、協定、合同，有涉及中、日間之關係者，一律廢止，特此布告。

中華民國三十年十二月九日　主席　林　森

• 很清楚，開戰是因為日本打了英美。 -lidongmei- ♂ (0 bytes) () 07/09/2015 postreply 15:48:43

• 我估計宣不宣戰跟僑民政策有關。宣戰之後，可以抓捕對方的僑民，關閉使館。未宣戰，不關使館，不抓僑民。 -asiancarp- ♂ (81 bytes) () 07/10/2015 postreply 10:14:09
