Hanoi (VNA) - Vietnam consistently backs all efforts to promote dialogue and maintain peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula, said Foreign Ministry spokesperson Le Thi Thu Hang.

Hang made the statement on May 19 in reply to reporters’ questions on Vietnam’s reaction to the latest test-firing of ballistic missile by the Democratic People Republic of Korea (DPRK).

“Vietnam is interested in recent developments relating to the Korean Peninsula and concerned about the DPRK’s missile launch on May 14,” Hang stated.
