China opened rail transportation for goods from Russia

China lifted restrictions on rail transport from Russia. This became known on Friday, January 14.

Previously, the ban applied to the transfer of all goods, except for container ones.

“We have received an official notification from Beijing that Chinese railways are lifting restrictions on the acceptance of goods through railway border crossings from today. They were introduced at the beginning of December 2021 as part of strengthening measures to prevent COVID-19 and control the epidemiological situation, ”the Russian Railways Telegram channel said.

Innovations will not apply to the transportation of unprocessed timber, as the Chinese government has limited the supply of this type of raw material from January 1.

On December 14, from the draft report of the Ministry of Energy “On the situation on the oil products market” addressed to Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, it became known that the Ministry of Energy considers it necessary to allocate subsidies to Russian Railways to compensate for shortfalls arising from the establishment of preferential tariffs for the transportation of motor fuel by rail for the sale in the Far Eastern Federal District (FEFD).
