Armenia will have an average growth rate of 3.2% in the global economy this year, said Armenian Finance Minister Atom Janjughazyan during the preliminary discussion of the draft state budget for 2020.

According to him, this figure will be 3.5% next year.

“What is also important is the expectations of the partner countries in terms of economic growth, since this also determines Armenia’s foreign trade expectations. Thus, Russia expects some acceleration of economic growth. This year it will be 1.2%, and in 2020 - 1.9%,” he said.
