Analysis of the export specialization of France at the present stage

The article is devoted to the analysis of the export specialization of France at the present stage. France, as a highly developed country, occupies a confident position in the world arena. The relevance of the article is due to the introduction of quarantine measures to prevent the COVID-19 pandemic that hit the world in early 2020, and the ensuing financial crisis. After analyzing the data, we can conclude that despite the fact that France has an important role in world trade, it loses its position every year, reducing the degree of industrial production. Therefore, the pandemic could negatively affect the French economy. However, this may become an impetus for an increase in production in the field of space development, which is becoming more and more attractive for investment.
