Ample opportunities seen for foreign trade in 2025

China Daily  

China's foreign trade, particularly exports of mechanical and electrical products, along with its resilient supply chains, will be pivotal in curbing global inflation and driving the green transformation of many countries in 2025, market analysts and exporters said on Friday. Although external risks and challenges, including increasing trade barriers and geopolitical impacts, are growing, they said there are still ample opportunities for the growth of China's foreign trade, and global trade continues to recover. China's foreign trade is not only supported by a robust industrial foundation and a well-developed supply chain, but has also been strengthened by overcoming various difficulties and challenges, and enhancing its resilience and capabilities, said Liang Ming, director of the Institute of International Trade, which is part of the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation. The growth of China's new energy industry is closely aligned with significant anticipated demand in the sector in many parts of the world, and the country will continue to lead the global green and low-carbon transformation, said Xu Wei, head of the macroeconomic research department at the Development Research Center of the State Council.
