Chin–Doihara Agreement


The Chin–Doihara Agreement was a treaty that resolved the North Chahar Incident of 27 June 1935 between the Empire of Japan and Republic of China. The agreement was made between Kwantung Army negotiator, Kenji Doihara, representing Japan, and Deputy Commander of the Kuomintang 29th Army, General Qin Dechun, representing China. It resulted in the demilitarisation of Chahar.
As a result of the Chin–Doihara Agreement it was agreed:
As a result of the Agreement, Qin became head of the Chahar Provisional Government.
As with the previous He-Umezu Agreement which gave Japan virtual control over the province of Hebei, the Chin–Doihara Agreement was a first step in the establishment of Japanese control over northern China and Inner Mongolia. The Agreement resulted in considerable anti-Japanese sentiment in China and was one of the causes of the December 9th Movement at the end of 1935.
