Italian <b>export<\/b> lost another 8.1 percent compared to 2012 (while 2012 vs. 2011 recorded 8 percent shrinkage), as a result of decreasing interest for Italian products in neighbor markets, first of all Germany, France, Spain and Portugal. In general terms, Europe has always been a key partner for Italian suppliers, but its relevance has strongly faded in recent years. This trend was not compensated by the &ldquo;satisfactory&rdquo; results recorded in emerging markets: China, Brazil, Canada, United States and Mexico have emerged as good destinations for Italian technology.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><b>Import<\/b> increased by 10.5 percent (up by 144 million Euros in value), mainly resulting from sales by German and Chinese competitors in Italy.
