The revised review of the global economy states that the annual inflation rate of Belarus will estimate at 30.6%. Authors of the review also noted that the country will manage to restore the internal growth, which has dropped due to the financial crisis of 2011. Meanwhile, Belarus needs to follow tough monetary policy in order to decrease the inflation level, since the region remains subjected to risks because of the problems in developed economies. The IMF maintains the forecast of the Ukraine GDP growth in 2012 at the level of 3% and improved the inflation forecast to 6%. In 2012 Ukraine expects a 3.9% GDP growth with an inflation of 7.9%.
