Legal documents on Hoang Sa, Truong Sa displayed
(VOV) -An exhibition of historical and legal documents asserting Vietnam’s sovereignty over Hoang Sa (Paracel) and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagos is set to open in the Mekong River city of Can Tho on March 25.
This is the 22nd exhibition the Ministry of Information and Communication has coordinated with local administrations to organize nationwide.
After each exhibition, the organizing board has tried to add new materials and objects to show the public.
On display are 100 maps, documents, objects, and pieces of scientific research related to the archipelagos, affirming Vietnam’s indisputable sovereignty over these two territories in the East Sea (South China Sea).
The documents on display prove that Vietnam from feudal times until now discovered, established, and defended their national sovereignty over the archipelagos and other islands in Vietnam’s territorial waters.
This is a continuous and long-term process which has been recognized by diverse historical materials published by both Vietnam and other countries.
The exhibition will continue until March 31.
