South Korea's exports exceeded $85.89 billion in April, topping $80 billion for the second consecutive month. The figure jumped 48 percent from a year earlier, driven by robust semiconductor shipments. The trade surplus reached $23.77 billion, marking the second straight month above $20 billion.
China’s top Communist Party journal, Qiushi, has reaffirmed the push to rebalance trade, stating that a worsening global environment of rising protectionism and geopolitical tensions adds urgency to shifting from an “unsustainable” export-driven growth model. The commentary notes profound changes in conditions shaping China’s trade balance, with deep-seated weaknesses in the foreign trade sector remaining pronounced.
