Viet Nam, Cambodia border demarcation basically completed

HA NOI (VNS) — With the construction of markers No.30 and No.275, the border demarcation between Viet Nam and Cambodia has been basically completed, Deputy Chairman of the Foreign Ministry's National Boundary Commission Nguyen Anh Dung commented. The upcoming inauguration of border marker No.30 in a high-level ceremony and No.275 in a provincial-level ceremony with the presence of Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung and his Cambodian counterpart Hun Sen is the result of an agreement reached on November 20 in Phnom Penh, Dung told the Vietnam News Agency in a recent interview.

The event is of significance to the strengthening of traditional friendship between the two countries, he said. The Vietnamese Party and State steadfastly pursue the policy of settling border issues with neighbouring countries through negotiations and peaceful means in line with international law, including the United Nations Charter and the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, he said, adding that the settlement of border issues with Cambodia is not an exception.
