Vietnam says it won't follow others in opposing China: experts


BEIJING (Global Times): Vietnam has made positive comments on its ties with China during Chinese State Councillor and Minister of National Defence Wei Fenghe's visit to the country, stressing that Vietnam will never follow other countries to oppose China.

Chinese experts said on Tuesday (April 27) that Hanoi is becoming increasingly mature and it has noted the US-proposed Indo-Pacific Strategy will undermine regional integration, unity and peace, as it uses the divergences between regional countries to hype up and escalate tensions, and Hanoi doesn't want to be made use of.
