Vietnamese, Koreans mark 55th anniversary of massacre

QUẢNG NAM — The Korean-Vietnamese Peace Foundation joined a commemoration for the 135 victims killed in a massacre 55 years ago, in the central province of Quảng Nam, on February 14. “Despite positive and bright relationship between Việt Nam and Korea in terms of investment and economic cooperation, the massacre left a ‘dark’ memory' on the two countries. “I’m not a representative of the Korean Government, but acting as a member of the National Assembly and I sincerely apologise to the Vietnamese people." The Korean National Assembly member shared that her visit to central Việt Nam also helped seek the truth. She said discussions on building a special law on solving the killings by Korean soldiers in the Việt Nam War will be continued.
