BEIJING, March 19 -- Over the past few days, troops from the Chinese and Vietnamese navies conducted a range of exchanges at the Fangchenggang Port in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. These activities, including cross-deck visits and friendly games, further strengthened traditional friendship and deepened mutual understanding and trust between the two sides. After these events, naval task groups from both countries will head to the Beibu Gulf to carry out their 40th joint patrol mission.
