Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Le Thi Thu Hang made the assertion on May 26 in reply to reporters’ query on Vietnam’s reaction to the Taiwanese action. 

“Vietnam has sufficient historical evidence and legal grounds to prove its sovereignty over the Hoang Sa (Paracel) and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagos,” she said. 

Taiwan’s organization of drills in Ba Binh waters area in Vietnam’s Truong Sa archipelago is a serious violation of Vietnam’s sovereignty over the archipelago, threatening peace, stability, security, and safety of navigation, as well as causing tensions and complicating the situation in the East Sea (South China Sea), she added. 

“Once again, Vietnam resolutely opposes and demands Taiwan to not repeat similar activities,” she stressed.
