(单词翻译:单击)

Yi Xianliang, deputy director-general of the Department of Boundary and Ocean Affairs of China’s Foreign Ministry1, has said the Islands are the inherent territory of China and there are no disputes in this area.

 

Yi said China has been shocked by the interference from the Vietnamese side against China’s normal drilling operations there. The Chinese vessels2 at the scene are only government and civil vessels, but the Vietnamese side has deployed3 many armed vessels. 

 

He added China’s drilling operations are being conducted in waters only 17 nautical4 miles from China’s Xisha Islands. Whereas the operations are about 150 nautical miles from Vietnam. Chinese oil companies started drilling operations near Xisha Islands a decade ago. 

 

From May to June last year, Chinese companies scanned the ocean floor prior to further drilling. Yi Xianliang noted5 the operations of Chinese companies in waters off the Xisha Islands fell completely within China’s sovereign rights. He said, Vietnam’s actions have violated international laws, infringed6 on China’s sovereignty and jurisdiction7, and endangered navigational freedom.
