"Vietnam has repeatedly asserted its indisputable sovereignty over the two islands - Paracel and Spratly. All activities of foreign parties in the area without the consent of Vietnam are an act of violation of international law, infringement of the nation’s sovereignty and invalid".
"Vietnam resolutely opposes the illegal act by China, asking it to respect the country’s sovereignty and refrain from conducting the similar wrongful acts, thus making practical contributions to the development of the friendship and cooperation between the two nations and maintaining peace and stability in the East Sea,” Le Hai Binh said.
