The actual growth is even higher than the 2% previous estimate of the Ministry of Economy.

In general, for the first 9 months of this year, taking into account the quarterly data of the State Statistics Service, real GDP growth is 1.3%.

The economy is further supported by factors such as the implementation of recovery and business development programs, which are financed by international financial assistance and contribute to the activation of domestic production.

Also, a factor in rapid recovery and growth was significant budget financing for capital reconstruction and repair of damaged critical infrastructure, housing construction (eReconstruction and eHousing programs), as well as the procurement of domestic products in the defense industry sector.
