This paper tries to make a suggestive comparison of the trade developments in the last three years (2005, 2006, 2007), tracking the evolutions of real merchandise, nominal merchandise and commercial services trade, by region and by country. The accent is put especially on the recent evolutions of the trade of Eastern European Countries. Finally, the authors formulate a conclusion regarding the evolution of the world trade since the present financial crisis begun.
