PM Groysman noted that over 2018-2019, Ukrainians will produce goods worth UAH 1 trillion more than in previous years.
The State Budget of Ukraine for 2019 provides for a 3% growth of gross domestic product, Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman told a government's emergency meeting Friday.
Presenting the draft budget, the prime minister said: "In the budget for 2018, we envisaged an increase in the national economy by 3%; today we're seeing that the pace is higher - in the second quarter it is 3.6%. For 2019, we plan that the target remains at 3%, but we assume that GDP will be growing."
