UKRAINE
Economic recovery has progressively gained momentum, but it is entirely driven by domestic demand and is accompanied by widening external imbalances. GDP growth is projected to pick up further to 2.5% in 2017 on account of export stabilisation, and to accelerate to 3% in 2018–2019. However, this scenario crucially hinges on the preservation of the semi-frozen state of the conflict in Donbas and the continuation of the International Monetary Fund programme.
