German exports and imports jumped more than expected in February, the Federal Statistics Office said on Monday, as the effects of the war in Ukraine have yet to be reflected in foreign trade figures.

Seasonally adjusted exports rose 6.4 percent on the month, compared to a rise of 1.5 percent predicted by economists.
