Wales has performed well in the latest economic figures for jobs and exports despite the current global situation.
When it comes to exports the UK overall has taken a hit due to Brexit and Covid - and now the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It saw the numbers of exporters drop by 0.6% over the last year, their revenues by 0.7% and their employment by 1.3% according to figures from Coriolis Technologies in partnership with the Institute of Export and International Trade.
But Wales showed a more positive picture with exporter numbers up by 0.4% and employment stagnant. There was though a 0.8% fall in revenues.
