The deployment of the rig is clearly a civil operation, but China treats it like a military one. Vietnam hasn't taken any clear military actions but China has, regarding this incident, for example: moving troops to Vietnam-China border, bringing more warships to protect the rig, using fighters and helicopters to patrol the area around the rig.There is not enough neutral independent source to verify your claim. This is the main problem with you Vietnamese. Your government is employing an international smear campaign to pain us as the aggressor and you as the victim when in fact, it is you who instigated everything when we clearly warned you to stay away and cooperate until we remove the rig in August.
Vietnam started a smear capaign against China to gain global supports. Saying Vietnam instigated the problem is wrong because, hell, China deployed the rig over Vietnam EEZ without even asking. While Vietnam continues to show more photos and clips of Chinese ships ramming and firing water cannon at Vietnamese ships, China keeps saying Vietnam is the aggressor without any evidence to back it up. A bunch of Vietnam ships have been damaged and had to be repaired back in the mainland. Does Chinese media report any damaged Chinese ships?
I think China has a similar mindset to this guy.
China is BIG and Vietnam is SMALL. And we are dictating you. Why should we negotiate with a small power like Vietnam that has nothing to hurt us.
