Europe is not the EU. Europe's total trade is 696.3 billion (with 403.2 billion exported); however, subtracting out JUST the UK's 78.5 billion brings this down to 617.8 billion and 343.6 exported. Remove Russia and you're at 549.8 and 308.8 exported. The US is 557 billion total with 409.2 exported. The US is China's biggest trading partner. Let's not even get started on the fact that the US is the major buyer of Chinese goods - nobody buys more. The US imports more dollars worth of goods than any other region except Asia.
