Beijing, December 2 (Xinhua) — A delegation from Russia's Zabaikalsky Krai recently visited the city of Manzhouli, in North China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, where they held a working meeting with the city's mayor's office to discuss the implementation of the China-Russia New Overland Grain Corridor project. This was reported on the official website of the Manzhouli city government on Tuesday.
The purpose of the above-mentioned meeting was to strengthen Chinese-Russian trade and economic relations, promote the import of high-quality agricultural products from Russia, and increase the scale of trade between Manzhouli and the Trans-Baikal Territory.
The meeting was attended by Chinese officials from the Manzhouli Comprehensive Bonded Zone, the Border Economic Cooperation Zone, and the Border Residents' Mutual Trade Zone, employees of the Manzhouli Railway Station and local customs, grain importers, and representatives of the city's grain processing and logistics companies.
During the meeting, the parties held an in-depth exchange of views on a number of issues, including cross-border transportation of agricultural products, customs and phytosanitary supervision.
During the visit, members of the Russian delegation visited local grain and oilseed processing companies, as well as the Manzhouli Comprehensive Bonded Zone, where they inspected a dedicated railway line and grain handling facilities.
The current visit allowed the Russian partners to gain a more complete understanding of the grain import, transhipment, storage, and processing capabilities at the Manzhouli Port. Both sides reached a consensus on advancing the implementation of the China-Russia New Overland Grain Corridor project.
This project, which is of great significance for deepening Sino-Russian agricultural cooperation and optimizing grain transportation channels, will help increase the scale of grain imports through the Manzhouli Port, reduce logistics costs, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.
At the invitation of the Russian side, enterprises from the city of Manzhouli will travel to Russia to familiarize themselves with the work of the Trans-Baikal Grain Terminal in order to lay the foundation for the in-depth development of cooperation. -0-
