Three accords concluded on November 18 last year that define the land border between Vietnam and China officially took effect on July 14.

They include the Protocol on border demarcation and marker placement; the Agreement on border management regulations; and the Agreement on border gates and regulations on management of border gates on the Vietnam-China mainland.

These documents have officially ended a 36-year land border settlement process between the two countries, said Deputy Foreign Minister Ho Xuan Son during a ceremony to honor the agreements at Thanh Thuy border gate in the northern province of Ha Giang.

“The event is a landmark in the development history of Vietnam-China relationship and serves as a prerequisite for building a Vietnam-China border of peace, friendship, stability and durability,” he said.

After the ceremony, the two sides discussed ways to implement the agreements in Ha Giang province and agreed to establish the Vietnam-China Land Border Joint Committee and formulate mechanisms for managing the border gates between the two countries.-
