Vietnam’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Le Hai Binh said Vietnam rejected China’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson’s statement on Monday (January 11th) on the landing of Chinese aircraft on an airfield that China illegally built on the Fiery Cross Reef of Vietnam’s Truong Sa archipelago.
Vietnam once again asserts its undisputed sovereignty over the Truong Sa and Hoang Sa archipelagoes. The diplomat also said China’s action is an unreasonable claim of sovereignty over the Truong Sa archipelago, which seriously violates Vietnam’s sovereignty over the archipelago and threatens peace and stability in the region, as well as in the East Sea. Vietnam once again demands that China stop its flights to the Fiery Cross Reef, contributing to the maintenance of regional peace and stability and navigation and aviation security, safety and freedom in the East Sea.
