The document of the association of Italian freight forwarders notes that 2021 was the year of recovery after the difficult 2020 marked by Covid and that 2022 should have been the year of confirmation of the recovery, but the outbreak of the conflict Russian-Ukrainian has brought the world of economics back into uncertainty, with a downward revision of the year-to-date growth estimates and effects on trade routes. In fact, the world traffic of container of 2021 reached 184 million teu with a growth of +6.6% compared to 2020; on the other hand, in the first quarter in 2022, container traffic fell by -2.4%, compared to the same period of the previous year.
