Q: please introduce "

A: Since reform and opening up, China's foreign trade has made great achievements, the status of trade giants has been gradually established, and quality and efficiency have been continuously improved, which has made important contributions to economic and social development.

Secondly, the current international financial crisis has far-reaching effects, the world economy is more complex, the international competition is more intense, trade protectionism is clearly rising, and the difficulty of stabilizing foreign trade growth is increasing.
