Abstract: This paper investigates how the import relations of the European Union (EU) have recently shifted in an increasingly fragmented global trade environment. Using trade data at a highly disaggregated product level, we analyse the reallocation of EU import flows, examining its implications in terms of changes in import diversification levels and price dynamics
