OSCE official: Armenia 1.2-percent economic is modest, but real figure

23 January 2010 [16:24] - TODAY.AZ
"1.2 per cent economic growth in Armenia is modest, but a real figure, although it is difficult to say, will it be reached or exceeded," head of the OSCE Yerevan office Sergey Kapinos said.
He noted that the growth is very modest, because GDP dropped by 15 per cent in 2009.

According to Kapinos, in order to mitigate the consequences of the severe crisis, the OSCE office has assisted the Government of Armenia by organizing various forums and bringing international experts to Armenia.

"I think their assessments and solutions are perceived and the government has mobilized its resources to overcome the crisis," he said.
