3月20日，國新辦舉行“權威部門話開局”系列主題第11場新聞發(fā)布會，海關總署署長俞建華及相關負責人介紹“守國門、促發(fā)展，為推進中國式現代化貢獻海關力量”有關情況，并回答中外記者提問。

China's foreign trade has gotten off to a good start this year, with an upbeat trend to follow, a customs official said on Monday.

海關總署署長俞建華及相關負責人3月20日表示，2023年，我國外貿開局平穩(wěn)趨勢向好。

The number of containers for export has been rising since late February, Yu Jianhua, head of the General Administration of Customs (GAC), told a press conference, addressing recent reports of empty containers piled at Chinese ports that have sparked concerns over trade.

對于“港口的集裝箱空箱數量增加引發(fā)擔憂”的問題，海關總署署長俞建華在新聞發(fā)布會上介紹稱，從海關最新數據看，2月下旬以來，我國出口用箱量在持續(xù)增長。

Weekly GAC data shows that trade has been improving since February, according to Yu. Although the foreign trade of goods edged down 0.8 percent year on year in the first two months, exports expanded by a better-than-expected 0.9 percent, Yu said.

從趨勢上看，按周監(jiān)測，2月以來我國外貿進出口明顯回穩(wěn)。今年前2個月，我國進出口總值同比微降0.8%。從規(guī)模上看，前兩個月出口總值增長0.9%，比預期要好。

Trade firms have reported increased numbers of new orders, and total exports of electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries and solar batteries surged in the first two months, Yu said. These highlights could bolster trade growth in the months to come, he added.

在訂單方面，據跟蹤監(jiān)測，新增出口訂單金額增長企業(yè)比重連續(xù)提升；電動汽車、鋰電池、太陽能電池“新三樣”合計出口大幅增長。外貿前兩個月平穩(wěn)開局的勢頭有望保持下去。

"Under the complex external trade climate lie opportunities, and the challenges are more global than local," Yu said, expressing confidence in securing stable trade growth this year as China's economic recovery continues.

俞建華表示，“綜合起來看，外貿形勢還是嚴峻復雜的，但也蘊含了不少機遇，困難更多是全球性的。隨著我國經濟形勢整體好轉，我們對今年我國外貿實現促穩(wěn)提質的目標充滿信心?！?/p>
