In 2023, this import volume was slightly higher, reflecting a downward trend over the forecasted period. Analyzing the year-on-year variation, a consistent decline is observable, averaging around 0.09% per year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the next five years projects an average decline of approximately 0.92% annually.
