YEREVAN. – The GDP of Armenia may grow by 2 percent in the current year, said economist Ashot Tavadyan, at a press conference on Thursday.

In his view, this indicator can be achieved in case of favorable dynamics in the country’s agricultural sector, and in the absence of major errors by the government.

“At any rate, it’s difficult to make clear forecasts, and that’s why they are so different,” noted Tavadyan. “[But] I believe a 2-percent growth is realistic.”
