Chinese citizen supports Vietnam’s sovereignty over Hoang Sa

Xisha islands - Hoang Sa (Paracel) archipelago – should belong to Vietnam as both mainland China and Taiwan have never actually controlled this territory, said Chinese citizen Zhang Pei Qiang.

In a comment sent to VOVWorld website of Radio the Voice of Vietnam (VOV), Zhang Pei Qiang expressed his hope that the situation in the South China Sea (East Sea) will not detrimentally affect relations between Vietnam and China.
He said both countries should settle the issues through peaceful negotiations to ease tensions and prevent another violent conflict like it was in 1979, in which  the two countries suffered bad consequences.
