Russia’s seafood exports to China, which make up around 70 percent of the country’s total supplies abroad, are facing hard times.

"The Chinese government’s new strengthened COVID-19-related quarantine measures against Russian seafood imports have increased the uploading time of the transport refrigerators from five-six days to three weeks,” Alexander Efremov, CEO for Primorskiy Krai-based Dobroflot Group, told IntraFish.
