Answering reporters’ query on Vietnam’s response to the act Taiwan had announced earlier, Hang said Taiwan’s move seriously violates Vietnam’s territorial sovereignty over Truong Sa; threatens peace, stability, safety and security of navigation; causes tensions; and complicates the situation in the East Sea.
The official added that Vietnam demands Taiwan not to repeat the act in the future.- (VNA/VLLF)
