"... worse since 2022" means 2022 was worse than this year. Also the stocks that tanked because of covid did mainly in 2020 and 2021.

I get what you're feeling, but I hope EU doesn't respond from their emotions but with rational thinking. In the end the well being of EU citizens should come first. Independence is good, but a hard turn can have radical consequences also financially. Taking a small economic hit is imho much more preferable than a long recession. We as individuals might be able to carry the consequences of our changing behaviour but I think it's better if the governments of Europe make careful decisions taking in account what pro's and cons there are to their measurements.
I don't disagree with this graph but in different context you can also divide Europe in to western European countries and eastern European countries according to their alignment during the majority of the previous century. In that case, Bulgaria, Poland and the Baltic states all belong to the group of eastern European state. I think this is the context in which OP meant the fact that mainly western countries are surveyed. I often see headlines mentioning Europe or Europeans and only refer to the EU and it's citizens, in the same 'wrong' way.
Wow so it's worse than every year from 2023 all the way to 2024!?
~~Actual~~ current headline: Tesla car sales in key European markets drop again in March
"Summary
- Sales in France, Sweden, Denmark and Netherlands fall for 3rd straight month
- Musk's involvement in politics has stirred controversy
- Tesla Q1 sales data due on Wednesday EV maker launching new version of popular Model Y"
It's the sheer volume of b2c goods coming in from outside the EU, they just can't check it all.
Kuddo's for the bias disclaimer & adding in the graph. (Edit: typo)
Never knew this, thanks
Right, like this could even happen by accident
