Economist Maslennikov explained the reasons for the growth of trade between Russia and China

“This is the implementation of the groundwork that was made last year.

Although he (growth. -

) could be much larger, in my opinion.

But there has been some decline in demand for our base exports due to quarantine restrictions in and around Shanghai.

Nevertheless, it is all developing quite positively.

And the prospect of two hundred billion a year mutual trade turnover is quite real for this year,” said Maslennikov.

Earlier it became known that the trade turnover between Russia and China in the first five months of 2022 increased by 28.9% compared to the same period last year.
