Spokeswoman of the Vietnam Ministry of Foreign Affairs Le Thi Thu Hang made the statement in reply to reporters’ query on Vietnam’s response to the live-fire drill conducted by Taiwan from June 28-June 29.

Vietnam's stance towards Taiwan's live-fire in the waters around Ba Binh island belonging to the Spratly archipelago is clear, consistent and has been affirmed for many years, Hang went on to say.

The action seriously violates Vietnam’s territorial sovereignty over Truong Sa, threatens peace, stability, safety and security of navigation, induces tensions and complicates the situation in the East Sea, she added
Vietnam resolutely objects to and demands Taiwan end the above-mentioned activities and not repeat them in the future, the spokesperson emphasized.
