China has completely stopped entering gas and wheat from the United States

China sharply reduced the import of a number of US goods during March and stopped importing some in a new indication of the increase in the trade conflict between the two largest economies in the world. Chinese Customs, released on Sunday, showed that liquid natural gas imports and wheat from the United States fall to Scratch in March. The United States formed 17% of China’s wheat imports last year, and 5% of liquid natural gas imports. This decline comes in the aftermath of China that imposes a retaliation -duties on US products, as in February a fee varies between 10% and 15% on energy imports, followed by similar procedures on agricultural goods in March. It is estimated that China’s imports of US goods are likely to fall, after the trade war increased in early April, with the two parties imposing comprehensive fees of more than 100%. A sharp decline in agriculture, as other agricultural commodities from the United States were a sharp decline in March, as cotton imports fell by 90% year -on -year to a little over 14 thousand tons, while wheat imports dropped to less than 800 tonnes, at the lowest level since February 2020. Shipment of the shipping of the shipping of the shipping of the sub -heat of US yields was March to reach 2.44 million tonnes and continue with the strong momentum he saw during the first two months of the year. China, the largest importer of soybeans in the world, is based on US supplies until the harvesting season in South America begins during the spring. On the other hand, the import of China of US LNG, which is used as an initial material in the petrochemical industry, fell 36% to 1.02 million tonnes. Coal shipments used in the steel industry also dropped 62% to 208 thousand tons. Although the United States does not fall on the list of ten largest oil suppliers to China, US crude shipping increased by 25% to 542 thousand tonnes, powered by the general increase in oil in the same period. Anxiety reduces the imports of minerals, while the minerals, which were not covered by the new Chinese retaliation in March, were influenced by anxiety caused by the Trump administration’s promise to consider fees on buyer imports, causing a high price allowance in the US market. This contributed to the reduction of China’s imports of US copper waste to about half their levels, to absorb a little over 22 thousand tonnes, while the shipping of metal centers fell by 38% to about 19 thousand tonnes.
