China News Service, January 13th. The State Council Information Office held a press conference on the 13th. Lu Daliang, spokesman of the General Administration of Customs, said at the meeting that in 2022, my country's foreign trade import and export has overcome the challenges of multiple unexpected factors. On the basis of a high annual base, stable growth has been achieved, and the scale has exceeded the 40 trillion yuan mark for the first time, making positive contributions to the steady development of the economy.

The main factors driving the current growth of foreign trade are as follows:

　　First, there is a market for export, and the main products have sufficient competitive advantages.

From the perspective of the market, my country's exports to major trading partners such as ASEAN and the European Union will maintain rapid growth in 2022; the development of emerging markets will accelerate, and exports to countries along the "Belt and Road" will increase by 20%, driving the overall export growth of 6.1 percentage points. Exports from Latin America and Latin America increased by 14.8% and 14.1% respectively.

In terms of products, my country's exports of industrial products will increase by 9.9% in 2022, driving overall export growth by 9.4 percentage points.

The export of labor-intensive products maintained rapid growth, and the export growth rate of green and low-carbon products such as solar cells, lithium batteries, and electric passenger vehicles exceeded 60%, and the new momentum of export grew rapidly.

According to the latest data, my country's current international export market share is 14.7%, ranking first in the world for 14 consecutive years.

　　Second, imports are supported and domestic demand has great potential.

In 2022, my country will coordinate domestic and international situations, coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, coordinate development and security, and maintain stable economic development. Major economic indicators such as the added value of industries above designated size and investment in fixed assets will continue to grow, providing support for import growth. Strong support.

In 2022, my country's imports of intermediate products will increase by 7.5%, driving the overall import growth by 5.9 percentage points.

In addition, the high price of international bulk commodities also drives the growth of import value to a certain extent.

　　Third, there is policy support, and the endogenous driving force for foreign trade development is strong.

In 2022, the state will introduce a package of policies and follow-up measures to stabilize the economy. In the field of foreign trade, it involves ensuring smooth flow, increasing fiscal and financial support, encouraging the development of new foreign trade formats, supporting foreign trade companies to secure orders and expanding markets, and continuously improving trade security and level of convenience, etc.

With the continuous release of the effectiveness of these policies and measures, the vitality of my country's foreign trade entities has been effectively stimulated.

In 2022, the number of foreign trade enterprises with actual import and export performance will increase by 5.6% compared with the previous year. The three major types of foreign trade entities, including private enterprises, foreign-invested enterprises, and state-owned enterprises, will give full play to their respective advantages, and the performance of import and export operations will be stable.

　　Lv Daliang said that the current development of my country's foreign trade is still facing many difficulties and challenges. At the same time, my country's economy is expected to recover in general this year, and there are many favorable conditions for the development of foreign trade. The promotion of stable scale and optimized structure of foreign trade has solid support.
