China, Russia, South Korea and Japan have signed an agreement establishing a joint venture to operate a sea route. The agreement was signed on Thursday during the 4th Northeast Asia Investment and Trade Expo in the capital of northeast China's Jilin Province.

The service is expected to start trial operations next month. It will run from Huichun, a key port in Jilin, to Niigata in Japan via the Russian port of Zarubino and South Korea's Sokcho port. The South Korea-based joint venture has registered capital of 3 million US dollars.
