President Truong Tan Sang recently took over Gazprom CEO Group (one of the leading oil companies of Russia) on the occasion of Gazprom reached an agreement with Vietnam Oil and Gas Group (PetroVietnam) for the same mined in two blocks 5.2 and 5.3 on the continental shelf of Vietnam.
This event made people remember not long ago, during a visit to India in 2011, the State President Truong Tan Sang had made a strong message about the Vietnam State is committed to protecting rights and interests and legal legitimacy of the foreign partners to do business with Vietnam, particularly in the field of oil exploration on the East Coast.
President Truong Tan Sang when it was confirmed that the cooperation projects of oil and gas exploitation in the East Sea of ​​Vietnam with the foreign partners are located in the exclusive economic zone and continental shelf of Vietnam, complete under their full sovereignty and national jurisdiction of Vietnam, in accordance with international law. The two lots that Gazprom has reached agreement with Vietnam is home to the gas Hai Thach and Moc Tinh, located in the Nam Con Son basin between the Spratly Islands and the coast of Vietnam. Since 2007, China also has here put pressure group BP (British Petroleum) to withdraw the investment and cooperation projects in Vietnam worth $ 2 billion in 2009. For years, China has many times put pressure on foreign companies to do business with Vietnam over South China Sea on the grounds that they had "indisputable sovereignty" over almost the entire Sea How the East was occupied by "-shaped line" non-scientific and irrational. For example, in May 7-2008 China has also pressuring ExxonMobil Corporation in the United States to stop cooperation projects with Vietnam in the hole in the yard of joint, the continental shelf of Vietnam. But ExxonMobil confident in the commitment of the State of Vietnam and compliance with international law of cooperation with Vietnam in these waters should continue the project. Until October last year, the company announced good news about the discovery of oil in the project area to cooperate with Vietnam.
A few days before the event Gazprom reached an agreement to cooperate with Vietnam in the plot that BP had to retreat took place, China also produces a warning message to the Indian companies will have to "pay" for Vietnam has worked with oil exploration in waters which it claims "has indisputable sovereignty". Immediately, Deputy Prime Minister of Vietnam Nguyen Thien Nhan, during his visit to India last month 3-2012, has stated that Vietnam regional cooperation with India does not have disputes over sovereignty and territory as This area is completely within the 200 nautical mile zone, under the sovereignty of Vietnam in accordance with international law. China's unilateral claim made "-shaped line" to occupy almost the entire South China Sea are serious violations of national sovereignty in many areas. Claim "-shaped line" has no basis international legal nor recognition of any international organization or any other country in the world. So absurd claims and non-scientific grounds can not become, as the basis of this law to oppose the lawful activities of other countries in the region.
Reference the provisions of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea in 1982 that China is a party to the claim that anyone "U-shaped line" completely contrary to the provisions of the Convention. No a provision of the Convention can justify claims "U-shaped line." Simply because the waters "U-shaped line" can not be grabbed in the territorial sea or exclusive economic zone or continental shelf of China. It's exclusive economic zone and continental shelf of Vietnam , Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei. claim "U-shaped line" absurd mentioned above has seriously violated the sovereignty of the five ASEAN countries for the exclusive economic zone and its continental shelf. Therefore, by Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines has in turn send a note to UN Secretary General rejects claims "U-shaped line" of China. The Tung Nations recently issued a continuing above absurd policy, organization of research institutions cartography and conduct field work to unilateral claims this makes the East Sea situation becomes more complex, causing concern indeed for the world community. Not only the countries involved in the South China Sea dispute that opinion of many other countries have also expressed opposition to this absurd claim full.
More oil companies of dozens of countries around the world are willing to cooperate with Vietnam and more and more news about the fruits of this cooperation that the international community, but especially the leading oil companies in the world, confident in the sovereignty and righteousness of Vietnam on the mining area in South China Sea. Under international law, exploration and exploitation of resources on its continental shelf is a normal of any sovereign nation, the law as well as community support. Any harassment, intimidation, or any aggression aimed at the normal lawful activities that are also irrational and violent infringement of the rights and legitimate interests of other countries, will certainly be community international condemnation.
