HANOI (Xinhua): The Chinese Embassy in Vietnam on Monday (Sept 14) refuted Japanese Defence Minister Nobuo Kishi's verbal attacks on China during his visit to Vietnam.
Kishi falsely accused China of "attempting to use its power to change the status quo" in waters near Diaoyu Island, of "intensifying the situation in East China Sea and South China Sea through its coast guard law," and grossly interfered in China's internal affairs related to China's Taiwan region, said the Chinese Embassy in a statement.
