Ministry of Commerce spokesperson Shu Jueting said at a regular press release on March 24 that the current situation facing my country's foreign trade development is still complex and severe. First, the impact of the epidemic is still ongoing. The bottleneck of the global supply chain has not yet eased, and the shortage of important raw materials such as chips continues to plague foreign trade companies. Recently, the local clustered epidemics across the country have shown the characteristics of many points, wide areas and frequent occurrences, and the foreign trade industry chain and supply chain have been affected to a certain extent. Second, the overseas epidemic control measures are gradually relaxed, the time for residents to "stay at home" is reduced, and the demand for some "stay-at-home economy" products is correspondingly reduced. The third is the recent high geopolitical risks, rising commodity prices, greater uncertainty in global economic and trade recovery, and a blow to overseas consumer confidence. Shu Jueting said that at the same time, it should be noted that my country's foreign trade industry has a solid foundation, and the industrial chain and supply chain are resilient. In the first two months of this year, my country's total import and export value was 6.2 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 13.3%, of which exports increased by 13.6%, basically achieving a stable opening. "Under the strong leadership of our CPC Central Committee and the State Council, and with the joint efforts of various of localities, departments and foreign trade enterprises, we are confident that the foreign trade will operate within a reasonable range throughout the year," she said.
