"P >" in recent years, Geely's market development in Ukraine has been relatively smooth.

This is the first time that this serious political turmoil has come across. "

Geely Automobile stakeholders told reporters that he went to Ukraine to inspect the market a few months ago, when there was no sign of calm.

"P", "this market, we will not give up."

If the situation is slow, then the impact will fade; once the situation worsens, the loss of Zhejiang's foreign trade is hard to predict.

< /p >

How to choose between P and Zhang Handong?

At present, for the relevant enterprises, it is suggested that we should calm down and observe the changes first and plan for the worst and strive for the best.
