Europe on Alert! Poland Suddenly Closes Border Crossings, Paralyzing China-Europe Railway Express; Greece’s Piraeus Port Seizes 2,435 Containers from China

一.Poland’s closure of ports triggers paralysis of China Europe freight trains

The Polish government suddenly closed all border ports to Belarus on September 12th, citing national security reasons, causing about 300 China Europe freight trains to be stranded at the Belarusian border, and nearly 90% of China Europe freight trains that rely on the Polish route to operate were interrupted. As the largest replacement hub in Europe, the Malashevic station has come to a halt, causing disruptions in the transportation of goods such as electronic products and automotive components, and putting cross-border supply chains at risk of disruption.

二.The replacement plan for the China Europe freight train is limited and the efficiency drops sharply

Although some logistics providers have attempted to divert to ports in Latvia and Lithuania, the alternative routes are severely congested (with over 420 queued vehicles), resulting in a significant decrease in traffic efficiency. The official of Chengdu Railway Port in China pointed out that the recovery time of Poland is uncertain, and the transportation efficiency of European trains will be significantly extended. Unshipped goods will need to switch to high cost solutions such as sea and air transportation.

三.Greece seizes Chinese containers for massive tax evasion

On September 16th, the European Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO) seized 2435 Chinese containers at the port of Piraeus, containing goods such as electric bicycles and clothing, with a total value of at least 250 million euros. Six suspects have been arrested on suspicion of forging import documents and customs fraud, resulting in an estimated loss of 800 million euros for the European Union. This incident has dealt a heavy blow to cross-border e-commerce channels, and the investigation continues to expand.For cross-border logistics solutions, feel free to reach out to Wayota.
