Viet Nam once again lodged strong protest against China as the latter on Wednesday landed two aircraft on the airfield built illegally on Fiery Cross Reef of Viet Nam’s Truong Sa archipelago.

Vietnamese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Le Hai Binh said the Chinese test flights seriously encroaches on Viet Nam’s sovereignty, threatens the regional peace and stability as well as security, safety and freedom of navigation and aviation in the East Sea.

Viet Nam demands China immediately stop such deed, respect relevant regulations of international law, and take no more actions that may further expand and complicate disputes.

Mr. Binh affirmed that Viet Nam will resolutely protect its sovereignty, sovereign rights, and jurisdiction in the East Sea through peaceful measures in accordance with the United Nations Charter and international law.
