Vietnam closely monitors the developments of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and wishes that the parties will resume dialogue and resolve the issue by peaceful means, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

During a regular press briefing in Hanoi on Thursday, Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Le Thi Thu Hang was asked about Vietnam’s position on the event that Russia annexed four Ukrainian oblasts, namely Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia.

Vietnam closely monitors the developments of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Hang said.

“Vietnam calls on relevant parties to resume dialogue and resolve issues by peaceful means on the basis of respecting basic principles of international law, especially the principle of respect for countries' independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity,” the spokesperson continued.

As an active and responsible member of the international community, Vietnam is ready to contribute to promoting dialogue and finding solutions to soon stabilize the situation, for peace and stability in the region and the world, she noted.

Russia announced the annexation of Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia in a ceremony held in Moscow on September 30.

On October 5, Russian President Vladimir Putin passed the laws to officially complete the merger of the four regions.

Ukraine and many countries rejected the results of the referendums on the annexation of the four regions and imposed new sanctions on Russia.
