تشرفت اليوم بالتوقيع، إلى جانب سعادة سفير جمهورية الصين الشعبية لدى جمهورية الصومال الفيدرالية، @AmbWangYu، على اتفاقية تاريخية تتيح للمنتجات السمكية الصومالية دخول السوق الصينية بإعفاءات جمركية.
ويمثل هذا الاتفاق إنجازًا استراتيجيًا يعزز مسيرة تطوير قطاع الثروة السمكية والاقتصاد الأزرق، ويفتح آفاقًا واعدة أمام زيادة الصادرات الوطنية، ودعم الصيادين والقطاع الخاص، وتعزيز تنافسية المنتجات السمكية الصومالية في أحد أكبر الأسواق العالمية.
ونتطلع إلى مواصلة العمل مع شركائنا في جمهورية الصين الشعبية لترسيخ شراكتنا الاستراتيجية، وتعزيز التعاون الاقتصادي والتجاري بما يحقق المصالح المشتركة ويعود بالنفع على بلدينا الصديقين.
