YEREVAN, APRIL 11, ARMENPRESS. Acting Prime Minister of Armenia Karen Karapetyan is convinced that the activities of the government of the last 1.5 years show that all the fundaments for a sustainable economic growth in the future are present, Karapetyan said during parliament-government Q&A session.
“We recorded 7.5% economic growth in 2017. In the near future we will make public the indexes of the first quarter of 2018, which exceed those of 2017. 7.5% economic growth is the highest in the region. I believe that in the near future we will record economic growth that will give us an opportunity to implement fundamental reforms. I am sure the last 1.5 years proved it”, ARMENPRESS reports Karapetyan as saying.
The acting PM reminded that the government has predicted 4.5% economic growth for 2018, assuring that if there are no force majeure situations, the growth may be even higher.
