Vietnamese authorities announced that Google Maps is fixing errors on its map service which depict parts of Vietnamese territory as belonging to China.
Vietnam acknowledged Google’s effort to meet its request and fix the errors, news website VnExpress reported Friday, citing Foreign Ministry spokesperson Nguyen Phuong Nga.
Nga told the news source that Vietnamese authorities will verify the authenticity of the corrections.
“Vietnam is finishing procedures to submit the official map and related legal documents on the borderline between Vietnam and China to the United Nations and provide them to map publishers in the world,” she was quoted as saying.
