China's foreign trade showing positive signs despite challenges: minister

BEIJING, March 6 -- China is seeing positive signs in exports and imports despite a challenging global trade environment, Commerce Minister Wang Wentao said Wednesday.

The country has seen a boom in trade activities during the Spring Festival period, a traditional slack season for imports and exports, Wang told a press conference on the sidelines of the ongoing session of the national legislature.

Wang said the trade recovery starting September 2023 is expected to continue, despite a possible dip in March due to a high comparison base.
