Vietnamese Ambassador to Mexico Le Linh Lan (Source: VNA)While discussing regional security issues and recent disputes in the East Sea, the diplomat asserted Vietnam’s consistent policy of peacefully resolving disputes in the East Sea, in the spirit of equality and mutual respect, and in line with international law, especially the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
Vietnam respects the sovereign right and jurisdiction of coastal countries for their exclusive economic zones in the sea.
Lan highlighted the role of the East Sea for countries in the region and the world, while mentioning China’s unfounded “nine-dash-line” claim in the sea, the reaction of other nations, and Vietnam’s stance on the issue.
