"In the past 25 years, how has the share of China's exports to various regions changed?" Before we get to this topic, we need to know some background.
First, on geographical divisions: in the statistical classification criteria, Russia is usually divided into Europe, although most of the territory of Russia is located in the Asian region.
Second, about the export destination: there are two types of exports, one is directly exported from country A to country B and complete the final consumption in country B, and the other is due to specific reasons, the goods produced in country A are transferred to country C through country B and the final consumption is completed in country C.
If we look at the export destination of country A, we cannot count the second case, that is, the goods that are ultimately consumed in country C.
This is where the flaw in answering this question from customs data lies. If you can find data on how to change hands, that's a more accurate statistical approach. In the absence of such data, the results of the analysis based on customs data are the closest reference data.
Based on the data of China's customs, we have plotted the proportion of China's total export value by region by export destination since 1998.
Regardless of the price difference made by middlemen, the total value of China's exports to other parts of Asia is currently stable at 475% or so, compared to 53 25 years ago5%, a decrease of about 6 percentage points.
The share of goods exported to Africa, Latin America and Oceania is low, but it is increasing compared to 25 years ago.
In the past 25 years, the total value of goods exported to Europe, accounting for the share of China's exports, has risen and fallen, and has stabilized at about 21% in recent years, an increase of nearly 3 percentage points compared with 25 years ago.
Excluding Asia, the share of goods exported to North America has increased from 21 25 years ago8% down to 16 in 20231%, down more than 5 percentage points.
Of course, this is excluding re-exports**. If you include entrepot **, I don't know how much the true ** value of each region will change.
