World Bank keeps forecast of GDP growth in Ukraine by 2% in 2017

At the same time, she noted that a 2% growth is not enough for Ukraine to raise the standards of life of Ukrainians to the pre-crisis level.

As UNIAN reported earlier, Fitch Ratings forecasts Ukraine's GDP will grow by 2-3% in 2017-2018.
