ABSTRACT

This article clarifies disagreement and conflict among Stalin, Mao Ze Dong and Kim Il Sung in the period of Korean Military Armistice Conference, using the materials of Russian Archives. Disagreement and conflict had mainly occurred between Mao Ze Dong and Kim Il Sung. In the period of seeking a cease-fire, internal disagreement among the communist side occurred between Mao Ze Dong, who recognized the need for the cease-fire, and Kim Il Sung, who wanted to continue the warfare. On the other hand, In the period of Military Armistice Conference Conflict had occurred again between North Korea and Mao Ze Dong’s China with respect to set the Military Demarcation Line and exchange the prisoners of war. However since Chinese troops committed the war, China had taken over leading role toward the war and North korea had to play the adjuvant role, even though the war was going on in the North Korea’s territory. Furthermore, the Soviet Union also supported the China’s intention. As a result, China’s intention naturally overwhelmed North Korea’s willingness. Therefore from the beginning the Korean Military Armistice Conference forced on the interest of Soviet Union and China, and North Korea’s interest was not the subject of consideration.
