Russia's **February 3**, No. 2 Chita Customs in the Russian Far East, found 8 containers containing Ukrainian military uniforms on a China-Europe train from China to Europe, and the Russian side seized them.
This incident was handled amicably by Russia, but it still caused controversy among netizens, and at the same time, this incident also reminded businesses of the issues they should pay attention to.
One. Friendly handling by the Russian side
According to reports: Russia's Chita Customs immediately notified the Russian Federal Security Department to jointly seize the eight containers, and the name of the manufacturer was not on the military uniform, so it was impossible to determine the manufacturer, and the whole inspection took about one week.
According to the report, the Russian side believes that this incident is purely a commercial act, which has nothing to do with the official and will not affect Sino-Russian relations. It cannot even be ruled out that someone deliberately did it to sow discord.
The report also said:Chinese, Uzbek and Turkish manufacturers all produce military uniforms for Ukraine.
Netizens followed. The above handling reflects the goodwill of the Russian side. At present, it is of utmost importance for Russia to maintain the health, stability and improvement of China-Russia relations. You must know that the manufacturer of the China-Europe train from the Far East is unlikely to come from Uzbekistan, let alone Turkey.
The number of follow-ups quickly reached more than 450, and netizens had a heated discussion about it.
Two. Controversy among netizens
1.Think that the Russian customs are doing the right thing.
Some netizens think that "some businesses, as long as they have 300% profits, really dare to put their necks in the noose!" The thread got 88 likes.
Such an evaluation clearly recognizes the practice of Russian customs: it is illegal for merchants to give ** military uniforms to Ukraine.
2.It is considered that the Russian customs practices are wrong.
Some netizens said that "military uniforms are clothing, not **", which means that clothing should be released. Similar to "It's not okay to buy clothes, you're too domineering!" ”
Netizens followed. Some netizens said: "If you sell Philippine missiles, won't I be allowed to sell military uniforms?" This reminds people of Russia's delivery of BrahMos anti-ship missiles to the Philippines two years ahead of schedule. And this is the most similar evaluation, and it is also associated with the sale of India by Russia** and so on.
3.As for whether the Russian side has the right to check this.
Among them, a post asked: "Does Russia have the right to inspect goods sent to other countries?" And there are questions that must be answered, and there is a reply post: "During the war, you have the right to inspect, and besides, military uniforms belong to military supplies!" ”
Three. Wrapping up
At present, the freight through the Red Sea through the Suez Canal channel** is rising rapidly, while the speed of sea transportation is relatively slow; Manufacturers through the China-Europe train land transport, may be related to the delivery time, after all, the land transport speed is faster, and when they load, it is estimated that Russia also knows that the Ukrainian military uniforms are provided by manufacturers in China, Uzbekistan, Turkey and other countries, thinking that there will be no big problems.
But at present, Russia and Ukraine are in a state of serious hostility, no matter what, the relevant manufacturers should take the shipping channel! After all, if 8 containers of military uniforms are seized, it will be a big loss for the manufacturer.
For example, the post said: "What are the goods sent to Ukraine doing through Russia?" ”
