Earlier, the Timber Trade Federation (TTF) said that the raw material of hardwood plywood exported from China to the UK was birch from Russia, which violated the UK’s “trade ban” on Russian products. Recently, Environmental Research Agency (EIA), a non-profit monitoring organization, released a report: after the ban on the import of Russian timber, birch from Russia entered the American market with the label of Asian products. This is the second time since the Russian Ukrainian incident that Russian timber has been found to be exported through the Chinese market.
Earlier, it was reported that although many countries successively imposed “trade restrictions” on Russia after the Russia Ukraine incident, the overall impact was not significant because Russia began to turn to the Asia Pacific market. At present, China is still the largest timber exporter of Russia, and the birch in China’s timber market basically comes from Russia.
