Storyline


China's foreign ministry spokesman on Friday denied reports on China's banning the import of Australian coal, saying that the customs throughout the country are accepting customs declarations for imported coal, including that from Australia.

The spokesman, Geng Shuang, made the statement in response to a Reuters report that five ports overseen by the Dalian customs in northeast China will indefinitely stop handling customs declarations for coal from Australia.

Geng said: "I've noticed the media report, by the Reuters, that five ports overseen by the Dalian customs will indefinitely stop handling customs declarations for coal from Australia. I want to clarify here that Reuters report is not true. As far as I know, all the port customs throughout the country are accepting customs declarations for coal import, including that from Australia."

In recent years, however, China's customs have found in their quality risk analysis and monitoring that some imported coal doesn't meet the environment protection standards, Geng said.

Therefore, China's customs have strengthened its quality and safety inspections and environment protection tests on imported coal according to related laws and regulations, according to the spokesman.

"The purpose, I think, is to better protect the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese importers and ensure environment safety," he said.
