Let A be a closed, bounded, and convex subset of a Banach space X.

Suppose V is a convex and open subset of X containing A, (A⊂V). Is there an open neighborhood of zero, say U in X such that A+U⊆V?

"Consider case where bdV (the boundary of V) is weakly closed"

I know that When A is weakly compact, the answer is yes (which is the case in all reflexive spaces), but the general case is unclear to me!

I am personally not positive about the answer "yes" in general cases. But I am guessing this property holds true in any Asplund spaces. 

What do you guys think?
