**中新社天津5月15日电 (记者 王君妍)** —— 随着“中远海运山茶”轮15日上午驶离天津港太平洋国际集装箱码头，中远海运美东航线在天津港正式开通。此举不仅为天津港乃至中国北方地区与美国的贸易往来提供了更为便捷的水上通道，同时也填补了近年来天津港与美国东海岸主要港口间直航航线的空白。
据了解，新开通的美东航线将连接天津港与美国东海岸的多个重要港口，为两国间的货物交流提供了更加高效的运输方式。这条航线的开通，标志着天津港在全球航运网络中的地位进一步巩固，同时也显示了中国航运企业在全球市场上的竞争力。
中远海运集团作为全球最大的航运企业之一，一直致力于提供高效、便捷的航运服务。此次新航线的开通，是中远海运集团响应国家“一带一路”倡议，推动国际物流大通道建设的重要举措。
天津港作为北方重要的港口城市，一直致力于提升自身在国际航运中的地位。美东航线的开通，不仅有助于提升天津港的航运能力，也将进一步促进天津乃至整个北方地区与美国的经贸往来，对区域经济发展产生积极影响。
未来，随着更多直航航线的开通，天津港将继续发挥其在国内外贸易中的重要作用，为促进全球贸易繁荣做出更大贡献。

### Tianjin Port Launches New Direct Route to U.S. East Coast
**Keywords:** Tianjin Port, U.S. East Coast Route, Direct Service Launch
#### New Service Enhances Trade Links between Tianjin and the United States
*Tianjin, May 15 (XinhuaNet) (Reporter Wang Qunyan) -* With the departure of the “COSCO Shipping Camellia” ship from the Tianjin Port Pacific International Container Terminal this morning, the new direct route from Tianjin Port to the U.S. East Coast has been officially opened by COSCO Shipping. This move not only provides a more convenient waterway for trade between Tianjin Port and the U.S. in the northern part of China but also fills the gap of direct routes between Tianjin Port and major ports on the U.S. East Coast in recent years.
It is understood that the newly opened U.S. East Coast route will connect several important ports on the U.S. East Coast with Tianjin Port, offering a more efficient means of transport for goods exchange between the two countries. The launch of this route marks the further consolidation of Tianjin Port’s position in the global shipping network and demonstrates the competitiveness of Chinese shipping companies in the global market.
As one of the world’s largest shipping enterprises, COSCO Shipping Group has always been committed to providing efficient and convenient shipping services. The opening of this new route is an important measure for COSCO Shipping Group to respond to the national “One Belt, One Road” initiative and promote the construction of international logistics channels.
As an important northern port city, Tianjin has always been committed to enhancing its position in the international shipping industry. The opening of the U.S. East Coast route not only helps to improve Tianjin Port’s shipping capacity but also further promotes economic and trade exchanges between Tianjin and even the entire northern region with the United States, having a positive impact on regional economic development.
In the future, with the opening of more direct routes, Tianjin Port will continue to play an important role in international and domestic trade and make greater contributions to the prosperity of global trade.
