贸易部长吕汉九呼吁全力以赴确保石油和石脑油的替代供应,以减少因中东持续动荡导致的供应中断给韩国企业带来的不确定性。吕部长周二晚间与商务参赞及贸易官员举行了紧急视频会议。在周三与企业高管的另一次会议上,他讨论了向包括印度和阿联酋在内的国家提出的相关请求。

据韩国产业通商资源部消息,贸易部长吕汉九周二晚间与派驻主要贸易伙伴的商务参赞及贸易官员举行了紧急视频会议。会议讨论了由中东动荡引发的包括原油和石脑油在内的主要工业原材料供应危机。吕部长敦促相关官员利用一切可用资源,通过与外国政府和资源公司接触,寻找替代供应来源。

该部表示,在周三与首尔主要企业高管举行的另一次会议上,吕部长称他已请求印度、阿拉伯联合酋长国和其他国家协助保障石油和石脑油供应。在本周于喀麦隆举行的世界贸易组织部长级会议期间,吕部长在与印度贸易部长皮尤什·戈亚尔会晤时,请求印度扩大石脑油出口。石脑油占韩国从印度进口总额的20%至21%。

韩国约一半的石脑油供应依赖海外进口,其中约70%来自中东。据韩国国际贸易协会的数据,去年韩国进口了2684万吨石脑油,主要来自阿联酋、阿尔及利亚、卡塔尔、科威特和印度。

关于美国根据1974年《贸易法》第301条款进行的贸易调查,吕部长承诺将捍卫国家利益,并确保韩国获得与其他主要经济体同等的待遇。该部将继续应对能源供应问题,同时扩大新出口市场的贸易网络。
