Italy and France recorded the same percentage of exports initially, and they both experienced a minimal growth to the same proportion of 9%. Meanwhile, other countries saw a negligible share of less than 5%, all of which underwent a 1% increase in the following 10 years, except for Finland, whose figure remained unchanged by the end of the surveyed period.
Regarding China, Germany was the main exporter to this nation, constituting 38% of the total share in 2005. The figure further continued to rise significantly to reach nearly a half in 2015, asserting its leading position to China’s total exports value. There was a marginal growth in exports from Spain and the Netherlands, while the percentage of Austria and Belgium remained intact during the examined period, at 2% and 5%, respectively.
