According to KSH, a more moderate decline was seen in both directions of euro-denominated external trade in goods than in April–May, due to the easing of the direct negative effects of the COVID-19 epidemic.
In EUR terms, the value of exports decreased by 3.1% and that of imports by 5.7% compared to the same month of the previous year.
