Japanese Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi and his Vietnamese counterpart Pham Binh Minh on Monday underscored the importance of maintaining freedom of navigation and the rule of law in the South Chi

na Sea, taking aim at China's militarization of outposts in disputed areas of the sea.

Motegi stressed that Japan has continued to "firmly state its position" to China about the South China Sea, a position Minh, who doubles as deputy prime minister, expressed support for, the ministry said. China has overlapping territorial claims with Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam and Taiwan in the South China Sea, a strategic waterway through which over one-third of global trade passes.

In the meeting, Motegi and Minh agreed to work toward bringing more Vietnamese workers to Japan under a new framework that opens doors to blue-collar jobs, according to the ministry.
