On August 7th, the Supreme People's Court released the second batch of six typical cases of foreign-related commercial and maritime mediation. These cases involve parties from eight countries, including Singapore, Bangladesh, Uzbekistan, Türkiye, Switzerland, the Marshall Islands, C ô te d'Ivoire and Chile. They demonstrate that the Chinese courts have a deep grasp of the requirements of the era of high-level opening up for service security, actively promote the efficient, harmonious and substantive resolution of foreign-related commercial maritime disputes, and inject strong legal momentum into the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" and the high-quality development of the marine economy. The reporter noticed that in case one, when a foreign cargo ship arrived at Valparaiso Port in Chile to unload the cargo, it was found that the cargo was damaged. The parties of Singapore, Türkiye and Chile abandoned the flag state jurisdiction agreement agreed on the back of the bill of lading and unanimously chose to litigate in the Dalian Maritime Court to show their expectation and trust in China's maritime justice through joint action. The court fully utilized the advantages of mediation, and through multiple rounds of back-to-back communication, it only took three months to push all parties to reach a settlement and automatically fulfill their obligations, using the "Eastern experience" of Chinese maritime justice to rebuild the cooperation bridge for foreign parties. Case 2 involves a dispute over a maritime cargo transportation contract between an international trading company and a fishing company in Hainan for the purchase and export of frozen tilapia. After the goods were transported to the port of Abidjan in Cote d'Ivoire, no one picked them up, resulting in long-term detention of the goods and high container demurrage fees. Chinese courts accurately grasp the interests and concerns of all parties involved, quickly promote peace and resolve disputes, and withdraw appeals and first instance lawsuits respectively, promoting the stable development of the fishery export industry chain and supply chain. Case six involves a settlement liability dispute between a Swiss company, a trading company in Henan, a coal-fired power company in Henan, and others. The Supreme People's Court fully grasps the need for continued cooperation between Chinese and foreign parties, innovates the "evidence exchange focus locking dynamic negotiation coordinated promotion" full chain mediation model, actively avoids exchange rate fluctuation risks, promotes the handshake and signing of settlement agreements between Chinese and foreign parties in court, substantially resolves the dispute, breaks the dilemma of "one case arising, cooperation terminated", and successfully resolves cross-border disputes worth over tens of millions of dollars. The Supreme People's Court stated that from the sea transportation of goods arriving at the port of Valparaiso in Chile to the ship collision that occurred at the port of Zhigding in Indonesia, foreign parties voluntarily chose the Chinese Maritime Court to resolve the dispute, demonstrating the high trust of foreign parties in our courts.
