中华民国政府对日宣战布告
（1941年12月9日）

日本军阀夙以征服亚洲，并独霸太平洋为其国策。数年以来，中国不顾一切牺牲，继续抗战，其目的不仅在保卫中国之独立生存，实欲打破日本之侵略野心，维护国际公法、正义及人类福利与世界和平，此中国政府屡经声明者也。中国为酷爱和平之民族，过去四年余之神圣抗战，原期侵略者之日本于遭受实际之惩创后，终能反省。在此时期，各友邦亦极端忍耐，冀其悔祸，俾全太平洋之和平，得以维持。不料强暴成性之日本，执迷不悟，且更悍然向我英、美诸友邦开衅，扩大其战争侵略行动，甘为破坏全人类和平与正义之戎首，逞其侵略无厌之野心。举凡尊重信义之国家，咸属忍无可忍。兹特正式对日宣战，昭告中外，所有一切条约、协定、合同，有涉及中、日间之关系者，一律废止，特此布告。

中华民国三十年十二月九日　主席　林　森

• 很清楚，开战是因为日本打了英美。 -lidongmei- ♂ (0 bytes) () 07/09/2015 postreply 15:48:43

• 我估计宣不宣战跟侨民政策有关。宣战之后，可以抓捕对方的侨民，关闭使馆。未宣战，不关使馆，不抓侨民。 -asiancarp- ♂ (81 bytes) () 07/10/2015 postreply 10:14:09
