China to send a mission to Russia this week to negotiate the closure of the Moscow market

Recently, the Russian authorities suddenly ordered the closure of the Cherkizovsky market in Moscow, the Ministry of Commerce, deputy Director of the European division, said 20th, the Ministry of Commerce is currently engaged in active consultations with the Russian Embassy in China, Vice Minister of Commerce Gao this week will also be led by business, foreign Affairs, customs and Zhejiang,　　Fujian Province and other provincial commercial departments of the delegation, to Moscow on matters related to further negotiations.　　Bullying in the news briefing held here said that the Sino-Russian negotiations mainly include three aspects: first of all, the Chinese side to the Russian fight against smuggling of criminal activities, but the Russian side in law enforcement should protect the personal, property safety and personal dignity of Chinese businessmen.　　Second, as the authorities concerned are suddenly ordered to close the market, not to the legitimate business of the Chinese businessmen to clean up and transfer the goods time, so I hope that the Russian authorities and the Moscow municipal government can assist Chinese businessmen to transfer goods to the safety standard of the operating site, the loss to a minimum. Third, in June this year, the two countries established the Sino-Russian Customs Cooperation Committee, and established a long-term mechanism to standardize the trade order between the two countries.　　We hope that the two sides can give full play to the role of this mechanism, strengthen the cooperation between the two countries and jointly combat "grey customs clearance" and establish a normative and transparent trade order. According to the Russian Chamber of Commerce in China, at present in the Cherkizovsky big market in Moscow, there are about 60,000 Chinese businessmen, although the market was closed after the Chinese merchant's goods have not been confiscated and destroyed, but also to most of the legitimate business of the Chinese businessmen caused a great loss, one is the market close to the goods can not be extracted,　　Missed the sales season, the second is that many of the goods sent to the market due to the closure of the market to domestic manufacturers, trading companies and other related parties caused losses. In addition, Ling said the incident in the near future may lead to a certain fluctuation in Sino-Russian trade, however, in the long run, the proper settlement of the incident will help promote the cooperation between the two countries ' customs, increase the crackdown on the "gray customs clearance", and help Chinese businessmen adjust their business strategies and change their trade patterns, thus promoting the healthy development of Sino-Russian trade.
