The statement was made by Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokeswoman Nguyen Phuong Nga on April 5 in response to questions from the media about Vietnam's reaction toward Chinese dispatch of two fishery administration ships to Truong Sa archipelago on April 1.

Vietnam reaffirms its indisputable sovereignty over the two archipelagos, said Nga.

“Vietnam calls on the Chinese side to immediately end the operation that may cause tension, further complicate the situation in the East Sea and affect the maintenance of peace, stability and cooperation in the region,” Nga said.
