China's Ministry of Commerce has responded to recent reports regarding delayed Boeing 737 Max aircraft deliveries to Chinese airlines, emphasizing the importance of stable cross-Pacific trade relations. The ministry confirmed it 'noted relevant reports' but affirmed China's commitment to maintaining long-standing cooperation in civil aviation with the United States.
A spokesperson stated that U.S. tariff policies have 'destabilized global industrial and supply chains,' impacting both Chinese airlines and Boeing. 'Such actions create unnecessary difficulties for normal trade and investment activities,' they added, while expressing China's willingness to support continued commercial cooperation between enterprises from both nations.
The remarks come as aviation industry analysts observe shifting dynamics in aircraft procurement strategies across Asia. The ministry urged Washington to 'listen to business concerns' and foster a predictable environment for international trade, underscoring the sector's role in promoting bilateral economic ties and cultural exchanges.
