1. In a globalized world, it is actually very difficult to close imports. Today's society is a globalized society. No matter what happens, the whole world is win-win cooperation. Because of economic globalization, import and export trade is unprecedentedly prosperous, and some countries with very simple economic systems rely almost entirely on exports to make a living. And because our country has a large population, there is a great demand for some things, such as pork. Some people abroad also choose the origin of pork. For example, westerners like to eat pork leg, while we like pork belly and ribs. Therefore, due to this complementarity, pork imported from China will be cheaper. So is chicken.
Second, once the import is closed, the consequences will be unimaginable. It can be seen from all kinds of big data that in China's consumption structure, these imported products have long been an important guarantee for the materials that China relies on, and at the same time have played a role in restraining domestic prices. If China suddenly cuts off the import route, the original aquaculture and planting industry in China can't keep up with the demand, which will eventually lead to the situation that the demand exceeds the supply and the price rises sharply. Secondly, if China cuts off imports, it will also have a huge impact on foreign markets.
Even foreign countries will think that we are practicing some kind of trade protectionism, which is fatal to our image as a responsible big country. Therefore, in order to prevent COVID-19 from entering the China market from abroad, the most important thing is not whether it is imported or not, but how to disinfect it quickly and effectively after import, which is the most important issue to be considered.
