Iran's Supreme National Security Council secretary Rezaei said the country has cleared floating inventories, opened new export channels, and that export volumes are gradually increasing.

MOFCOM deputy minister Yan Dong said on Aug. 28 that China’s service trade should see multiple tailwinds in H2. Travel-service exports are expected to sustain high growth as international trade shows, business events and the inbound tourism peak overlap. High-value service sectors — digital platform services, cloud and AI-related services — are accelerating overseas expansion; telecom, computer & information services, IP and culture/entertainment services are also growing rapidly, pushing service trade up the value chain. Policy support — capacity and quality upgrades in services, rollout of national service-trade innovation pilot zones and the upcoming China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) — will further ease high-level opening and higher-quality development. Outlook: full-year China service trade to remain positive, with strong service export momentum.
