The monthly figures pushed the country’s foreign trade surplus to €16.9 billion, Destatis reported.

Trade with European Union partners remained robust. Germany shipped €76.3 billion worth of goods to EU member states, while imports from the bloc reached €61.1 billion.

In a notable monthly shift, Germany’s exports to Russia edged 4.8% higher, reaching €600 million despite ongoing geopolitical tensions.
