2007 is Russia's "China year". With the expanding scale of trade between the two countries, Jilin's trade with Russia has been unprecedentedly active and full of vitality.

According to statistics, in the first half of 2007, the import and export volume of Jilin's imports and exports to Russia reached 270 million US dollars, up 2.7 times from the same period (the same below), with imports of 48 million 770 thousand US dollars, an increase of 1.5 times, and export of 220 million US dollars, a 3.1 fold increase.

(1) Jilin's trade with Russia has the following characteristics: 1, all kinds of trade patterns have increased at different ranges, and border trade has been monopolized.

In the 1-6 month, the volume of Jilin's small trade import and export trade with Russia amounted to US $96 million 580 thousand, an increase of 1.8 times, accounting for 36.1% of the total volume of trade with Russia; other trade suddenly rose to US $82 million 10 thousand, compared with only 1 million 410 thousand US dollars in the same period last year; the general trade import and export 53 million 570 thousand US dollars, increased 1.3 times; and the import and export of processing trade 35 million US dollars, an increase of 1.5 times.

2. Various business entities have increased at different ranges, and private enterprises are increasing rapidly.

In the first half of this year, the import and export volume of private enterprises amounted to 230 million US dollars, an increase of 3.3 times, accounting for 84.6% of the total volume of trade with Russia. State owned enterprises also showed strong growth momentum, the volume of imports and exports was 27 million 700 thousand US dollars, an increase of 1.9 times, and the foreign investment enterprises' imports and exports reached 11 million 610 thousand US dollars, an increase of 15.7%.

3. The steady growth of import and export of commodities has become a new highlight for Russia's export of mechanical and electrical products.

In the first half of the year, Jilin's imports to Russia were still dominated by resource commodities, including frozen fish 14 million 770 thousand US dollars, an increase of 47%; fresh or dried nuts 14 million 600 thousand US dollars, an increase of 25.5 times; asbestos 12 million 160 thousand US dollars, an increase of 79.2%; logs and lumber of 2 million 420 thousand US dollars, an increase of 30.1%.

Chemical pulp is a new bright spot for imported Russian goods, amounting to 4 million 420 thousand US dollars.

The substantial increase in export is the driving force for Jilin's trade with Russia to enter the fast track of development.

In the first half of the year, the export garments and accessories for Jilin exported to US $66 million 550 thousand, an increase of 8.9 times, which was the largest commodity in Jilin's export trade with Russia. The export of shoes and shoes was 32 million 750 thousand US dollars, an increase of 30.9%; the export situation of shoes and footwear parts was gratifying, 24 million 820 thousand US dollars, only 190 thousand US dollars exported last year; exports of bags and bags were US $20 million 760 thousand; last year we exported only 930 thousand dollars; artificial fur and its products were exported to 9 million 980 thousand U. S. dollars, and there was no export in the same period last year.

Besides, in the first half of this year, Jilin's electromechanical products became a new bright spot for exports to Russia.

Exports to Russia totaled 37 million 460 thousand US dollars, an increase of 2.3 times, accounting for 17.1% of total exports.

Among them, the export of motor vehicles was 16 million 870 thousand US dollars, an increase of 2 times; the export of instruments and meters was 5 million 920 thousand US dollars, an increase of 1.3 times; the export of electrical and electronic products was 8 million 780 thousand US dollars, a 5.3 fold increase.

The growth of export of mechanical and electrical products has, to a certain extent, optimized the commodity structure of Jilin's exports to Russia.

Two, Sino Russian bilateral economic and trade policy support and encouragement are the main reasons for the strong growth of Jilin's trade with Russia: first, this year coincides with Russia's launching of the "China year" campaign. China and Russia attach great importance to bilateral trade. The government and the customs have issued a new policy to encourage border tourism trade, stimulating the development of tourism trade and driving the rapid growth of trade with Russia.

The two reason is that in early 2006, the 10 ministries and commissions such as the Ministry of Commerce and the State Administration of Taxation issued the "opinions on accelerating the pformation of the export growth mode of mechanical and electrical products" during the "11th Five-Year" period, which enabled some mechanical and electrical products manufacturing enterprises to consolidate their traditional export markets and take the opportunity of Russia's "China year" activities as an opportunity to intensify their efforts to expand the Russian market, so that the export of mechanical and electrical products in Jilin increased sharply. Three, because the Russian coastal border area is on the brink of the Japanese sea and the seafood is abundant, more and more domestic seafood processing enterprises regard the Russian coastal area as a stable raw material supply place, and participate in the international trade and competition of seafood, so that the import of Russian seafood is increasing.

Three, Jilin's trade with Russia has problems and worries. 1, Jilin's trade with Russia is extremely unbalanced.

Although imports have increased considerably, the export growth rate is much higher than the import growth rate, resulting in a further expansion of the trade surplus. Since 2003, the surplus has doubled, and the surplus in 2003 has been 2 million 100 thousand US dollars. In 2004, the surplus has increased to 39 million US dollars, up to 110 million US dollars in 2005, and 320 million US dollars in 2006. In the first half of 2007, it has reached 170 million US dollars, a 4 fold increase.

The continued growth of trade surplus has increased the imbalance of trade with Russia.

In the long run, this has laid a hidden danger for the instability of trade between Russia and Russia.

2. The trade structure of Jilin's trade with Russia is unreasonable.

Among them, most of the imported goods are resource products. The export commodities are mostly low value-added products such as textiles, bags and footwear. Although the export of mechanical and electrical products has increased considerably, the proportion is still small, accounting for 17% of the total export volume. Once the trade policy of Russia has been tilted, Jilin's trade with Russia will easily be negatively affected.

3. Under the influence of Russia's ban on business orders, the decline of Russian export trade to a certain extent should be highly valued.

In recent months, except for exports of US $47 million 20 thousand in April, a slight increase over March, 5 and June showed a downward trend in a single month, of which 35 million 140 thousand US dollars in May and 25.3% in the month, and 15 million 870 thousand US dollars in the same month in June, a decrease of 54.8%.

4. The Russian government's ineffective administration of "grey customs clearance" in the Far East is a stumbling block to the steady development of Russian trade.

According to the Russian trade enterprises, Russia often only one customs clearance company controlled the trade of the whole port. "Grey customs clearance", to a great extent, left and right the import and export of the Russian ports, resulting in the irregularities and instability of the Russian trade.
