BEIJING, May 8 (Xinhua) -- China is willing to work with all countries to strengthen cooperation and promote the healthy and sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce said on Thursday.
Cross-border e-commerce satisfies the personalized needs of consumers worldwide, boasting advantages such as high efficiency, fast delivery, and cost savings, said commerce ministry spokesperson He Yadong at a regular press conference.
The remarks were made after the United States canceled its tariff exemption policy for small parcels from China on May 2.
The cancellation will harm the interests of businesses and consumers in both countries, said the spokesperson, noting, "We firmly oppose it."
He emphasized that the U.S. policy move will not impede the rapid development momentum of cross-border e-commerce.
China is willing to work with all countries to strengthen cooperation, jointly create a fair and predictable policy environment, and promote the healthy and sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce, according to the spokesperson.
