(VOVworld)- On Monday, in response to reporters’ question on Vietnam’s reaction to China’s notice on conducting military drills from July 5th to 11th in an area that covers Vietnam’s Hoang Sa archipelago, the spokesperson for Vietnam’s Foreign Ministry Le Hai Binh said China’s action once again violates Vietnam’s sovereignty over Hoang Sa (Paracel) archipelago and runs counter to common perception of the two countries’ leaders, and violates international law including the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and the Declaration on the Conduct of Party in the East Sea. Vietnam strongly opposes this action and demands that China respect Vietnam’s sovereignty, act responsibly, and immediately end and not to conduct acts that threaten security and safety of navigation in the East Sea or escalate tension in the region.
