扩展对外贸易是邓小平对外开放理论的重要组成部分，是建设有中国特色社会主义的伟大实践之一。改革开放以来，我国在商品进出口、利用外资和经济特区发展等方面都有了长足进步，而对外贸易的发展则有力地促进了我国的经济发展。 Expanding foreign trade is an important part of Deng Xiaoping’s theory of opening to the outside world and one of the great practices in building socialism with Chinese characteristics. Since the reform and opening up, China has made great strides in the import and export of commodities, the utilization of foreign investment and the development of special economic zones. The development of foreign trade has effectively promoted the economic development of our country.
