The spokesperson added the test seriously violated relevant resolutions of the United Nations Security Council, increased tensions and threatened peace and stability in the region. 

“Vietnam’s consistent stance is to support denuclearisation on the Korean Peninsula and advocate the comprehensive ban of nuclear tests, non-proliferation of nuclear weapons towards full nuclear disarmament,” Binh said. 

He went on to say that Vietnam calls on relevant sides to abide to the UNSC’s resolutions and take practical actions to promote peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula.
