China opposes Vietnam's oil and gas exploration in China's jurisdictional area of the South China Sea, Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Jiang Yu said yesterday.
"China's stance on the South China Sea is clear and consistent. We oppose the oil and gas operations conducted by Vietnam, which have undermined China's interests and jurisdictional rights in the South China Sea and violated the consensus both countries have reached on the issue," Jiang said in a statement.
Jiang was responding to a recent report in which Hanoi claimed Chinese marine surveillance vessels interfered with Vietnam's oil and gas exploration in the South China Sea and accused Beijing of violating its sovereignty.
"What relevant Chinese departments did was completely normal marine law enforcement and surveillance activities in China's jurisdictional sea area," Jiang said.
"China has been committed to safeguarding the peace and stability in the South China Sea. We are willing to work together with relevant parties to seek a solution to related disputes and implement the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea," Jiang said.
