> No, but capitalism is the sole source of international trade. It's not though. As an example, North Korea's exports [0] in 2021 were around US$150M, down more than US$30Mi from the previous year. Their imports [1] were larger, at ~US$276Mi, about half the previous year's. Cuba's exports [2] are much larger, just short of US$1Bi for 2021, and nearly US$8.5Bi imports.
