“…According to that, we can confirm that export volume depends on the countries' global competitiveness level, which is in line with Mukhtarov, Alalawneh, Ibadov and Huseynli (2019). Despite stable assumptions (Sabra, 2021), the third hypothesis, related to the impact of FDI inflow on exports, was not confirmed. The results also justify the CEEC strategy aimed at major investment projects focusing on the development of infrastructure (European Commission, 2019).…”

“…Empirical research is supported by the use of control variables closely related to the volume of international trade as a dependent variable, namely, the inflow of FDI and the Global competitiveness index (GCI). The theoretical basis for those control variables relies on studies which proved their connection with export (Mukhtarov, Alalawneh, Ibadov & Huseynli, 2019;Ruzekova, Kittova & Steinhauser, 2020;Sabra, 2021).…”

“…An increase of 1 unit in FDI might lead to a rise of 78.845 dollars in GDP. The relationship between GDP expansion, trade, and foreign direct investment was established by Sabra [98]. Inbound FDI has a multiplier effect on a country's GDP by increasing its exports.…”

“…The results show that foreign investment and government intervention have a significant role in promoting China's economic growth and a negative spillover effect on neighboring regions' economic growth. Foreign investment facilitates economic and trade exchanges between countries worldwide and introduces advanced management experience while promoting inter-regional competition and cooperation, which significantly contributing to economic efficiency [39,40]. The negative spillover effects of foreign investment and government intervention further indicate that China's degree of regional competition is relatively high and the cooperation is insufficient.…”

“…Foreign investment has a positive effect on regional economic growth with spatially significant spillover effects. Regional economic growth is promoted in different ways, such as accelerating domestic technological progress, introducing advanced management experience, and technology spillover through foreign investment [39,40].…”
