It is with great memories and sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Minnie, on March 21, 2021.

The volume of trade between Germany and Romania dropped 10 percent in 2020 to 29.36 billion euros, shows data released by the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) and cited by the Romanian - German Chamber of Commerce and Industry (AHK Romania) in a release, according to AGERPRES.
Total exports to Romania last year amounted to 15.8 billion euros (-5.9 pct), and imports stood at 13.5 billion euros, 14.4 percent less than in 2019.
