Freedom House’s report on Vietnam's internet freedom has no value
(VOVWORLD) - Responding to reporters’ queries about Vietnam’s reaction as Freedom House places Vietnam among countries with little internet freedom, Vietnam Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Le Thi Thu Hang said that it is not the first time that the organisation has made biased and prejudiced assessment based on untrue information on Vietnam.

Speaking to reporters at regular press conference on Thursday, the spokeswoman stated that efforts to promote and ensure human rights in Vietnam have been highly valued by countries and international organisations in the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) under the auspices of the Human Rights Council.
“Therefore, the Freedom House’s report has no value and it is not necessary to comment further,” the spokesperson said.
