17日上午，商务部在京召开例行新闻发布会，通报2012年上半年我国商务运行情况。商务部新闻发言人沈丹阳表示，今年我们要实现进出口10%左右的目标，不是说出口增长10%，进口也增长10%，也可能是出口增长10%多一点，也可能是进口增长10%多一些，两种可能都存在。

17 morning，The ministry of commerce regular press conference held in Beijing，Reporting in China in the first half of 2012 business operation。Commerce ministry spokesman said ShenDanYang said，This year we will achieve the goal of import and export of about 10%，Not to say that export growth of 10%，Imports increased 10%，Also may be a little more than 10% export growth，Also may be imports rose 10% more，There are two possible。

　　沈丹阳表示，今年以来我国经济的下行压力比较大，国内需求偏弱，导致进口需求不旺。今年我们要实现进出口10%左右的目标，不是说出口增长10%，进口也增长10%，也可能是出口增长10%多一点，也可能是进口增长10%多一些，两种可能都存在。

ShenDanYang said，Since this year our country economy downward pressure on the relatively large，Weaker domestic demand，Lead to import demand low。This year we will achieve the goal of import and export of about 10%，Not to say that export growth of 10%，Imports increased 10%，Also may be a little more than 10% export growth，Also may be imports rose 10% more，There are two possible。

　　此外，沈丹阳指出，上半年的进口增速较低还受国际大宗商品市场价格走低、国际市场不振的影响。

In addition，ShenDanYang points out that，The first half of the year low imports by international commodity market prices were low、The influence of the international market。

　　沈丹阳指出，上半年全球大宗商品价格振荡下行，相应的我们进口商品价格也就下降。上半年我们海关统计进口价格指数上升1.5%，虽然有增加，但是远低于去年，去年是将近15%。比如说上半年的铁矿砂、铜、大豆，这些比较大宗的进口商品价格分别下降14.2%、11.9%和4.1%。尽管多数商品进口数量还在快速增长，但是价格因素使得进口金额的增速总体偏低。这种情况有好处，因为价格低，就会扩大进口。但是，反映到进口增速上，有一个滞后的过程。我们也有专家分析，下半年进口大宗商品的增速可能会上升。

ShenDanYang points out that，In the first half global commodities prices oscillation to the downside，The corresponding we import prices also fell。In the first half we customs statistics import price index rose 1.5%，Although there are increasing，But far lower than last year，Last year is almost 15%。For example iron during the first half of the year、copper、soybean，These the bulk of the import prices were down 14.2%、11.9% and 4.1%。Although most imports is growing fast，But the price factors makes imports the rate of growth of overall amount is low。This kind of situation is good，Because the price low，You will expand imports。but，To reflect on imports，There is a lag of the process。We also have expert analysis，The second half of the rate of growth of commodity imports may rise。

　　此外，中国的进口不仅仅是投资和消费，中国的进口有相当一部分是加工贸易，进口是为了出口。国际市场不振，出口市场萎缩，进口也就下降了。所以我们看到，上半年，加工贸易进口增长乏力，仅增长了0.7%，上个月当月还下降了1.9%，这就是对国际市场的一种反映。

In addition，Chinese imports is not only investment and consumption，China's import there are quite a number of processing trade，Import is to export。The international market of，Export market atrophy，Import also declines。So we see，In the first half，Processing trade import growth weakness，Rose by only 0.7%，That month also fell 1.9% last month，This is a reflection of the international market。
