Vietnam criticizes China’s border controls under ‘Zero COVID’ policy

Vietnam’s trade ministry urged China to take urgent measures to ease congestion at border crossings, including starting a pilot programme to allow fully vaccinated workers to alleviate manpower shortages by loading and unloading the trucks held up at Chinese border crossings.

The two sides agreed to stay in close communication to resolve the problem as reported in Chinese media quoting a Vietnam News Agency report.
