Italy’s exports to China have tripled in little more than a year. The problem is, even the experts are struggling to explain why.
Shipments abroad rose above €3 billion ($3.3 billion) in February, up 131% from a year earlier. This follows another jump of 137% the month before. For comparison, Italy exported about €1 billion of goods and services in January 2022 to the world’s No. 2 economy.
