China is "creating facts on the ground" in the South China Sea, Vietnam's Ambassador to the U.S. Nguyễn Quốc Cường told CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Wednesday.

At question is an area of the South China Sea near the Paracel Islands; China this month installed an oil rig in an area both countries claim as their own.

This week a Chinese boat rammed and sunk a Vietnamese fishing boat near the oil rig; and in Vietnam, violent riots against the Chinese have forced Beijing to evacuate thousands of its workers.

"China is trying to turn [an] undisputed area into a disputed area. And that is unacceptable," Nguyễn Quốc Cường said.
