Throughput of Primorye ports is planned to double by 2030 with the growth of transit including that of Chinese cargo, Oleg Kozhemyako, Governor of the Primorsky Territory (Primorye), said at the Harbin International Economic and Trade Fair, according to the press center of Primorye Government.
According to Oleg Kozhemyako, the transit of Chinese Chinese cargoes via the ports of Primorye has a positive impact on the bilateral cooperation and a good economic effect.
