(VOV) -Any dispute over the East Sea should be resolved through peaceful negotiations on the basis of respect for international law.
The affirmation was made by Venezuela-Vietnam Parliamentary Friendship Group (VVPFG) President Oscar Figuera at a meeting with Vietnamese ambassador Ngo Tien Dung in Venezuela on July 10.
Mr. Figuera expressed hope that on the basis of good traditional relationship between Vietnam and China, the East Sea disputes between the two countries should be resolved peacefully, avoiding armed conflicts in order to maintain regional stability and ensuring freedom and safety of international navigation in the East Sea.
At a working session with the VVPFG, ambassador Dung handed over a Memorandum of Understanding on China’s illegal placement of drilling platform Hiyang Shiyou-981 in Vietnam’s excusive economic zone (EEZ) and continental shelf.
Earlier, the Vietnam Embassy in Venezuela has sent a diplomatic note and the MoU to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the National Assembly Committee on International Relations, a number of social and political organizations and the media of Venezuela to inform about the related East Sea situation.
