Chinese Defense Minister Chang Wanquan has warned Vietnam not to make repeated mistakes and to look at the bigger picture of China-Vietnam friendship.

While attending the ASEAN-China Defense Ministers' Meeting on Monday, Chang met his Vietnamese counterpart Phung Quang Thanh. Chang condemned Vietnam's recent disruption of China's routine, legitimate oil drilling near China's Xisha Islands, as well as riots targeting Chinese enterprises and nationals. He called on the Vietnamese side to respect history and face reality.

Phung Quang Thanh said Vietnam highly values its friendship with China. He promised the armed forces would not take any action that would complicate the situation.
