Handel: Chinas Außenhandelsüberschuss überwindet die Billionenmarke: Staatsführung treibt Exporte weiter an
China exportiert immer mehr ins Ausland, auch nach Deutschland. Zugleich jährt sich der Beitritt zur Welthandelsorganisation. Kritiker halten ihn für einen Fehler. Zu Recht?
Shanghai, China's foreign trade surplus has surpassed the billion-dollar mark, with the Chinese government continuing to push for increased exports, despite efforts by trading partners like Germany to highlight imbalances in the trade balance. According to the Chinese customs authority, the surplus for the first ten months of the year broke the symbolic $1 billion barrier, reaching approximately $1.04 trillion, or about €927 billion.
In October alone, exports increased by 35.2% compared to the previous year, while imports rose even more sharply by 41.6%. Consequently, the surplus narrowed slightly but remained above the billion-dollar threshold. Similarly, trade with Germany saw Chinese exports grow by a significant 33.5% in October year-on-year, while imports fell by 2.6%.
Exports to the European Union (EU) climbed by 24.4%, while imports dropped by over 4%. The surplus with the EU reached $33.4 billion.
