China faces growing pressure to stabilise imports, exports: vice commerce minister

BEIJING (Reuters) - China is facing growing pressure to stabilise its imports and exports and the major challenge is the slowing growth of external demand, vice commerce minister Wang Shouwen said at a press conference in Beijing on Tuesday.

The ministry on the same day released a slew of measures to stabilise the foreign trade sector, including supporting second-hand auto exports in some areas and order delivery.
