China resumes imports of some seafood products from Taiwan that had been suspended

The Chinese government announced that it resumed imports of some marine products from Taiwan, which had been suspended, from the 15th.

The Chinese government has suspended imports of some marine products and citrus products from Taiwan since August last year due to the detection of the new coronavirus in packaging.

In response to this, a spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council in charge of Taiwan policy in the Chinese government announced that customs authorities resumed imports of swordfish and mackerel from the 8th.

With the end of the "zero corona" policy, the reason is that PCR testing for food imported at low temperatures has been canceled.

The Chinese government's import ban was announced in August last year, shortly after then-U.S. House Speaker Pelosi visited Taiwan, and some viewed it as part of pressure on Taiwan.
