Ukraine’s Economy Ministry prepares to cut 2026 GDP growth forecast again
Ukraine’s Ministry of Economy is preparing another downward revision to its 2026 GDP growth forecast, while the outlook for 2027 has fallen to 1.3%. The final 2026 figure is still undetermined, but the ministry’s preliminary assessment puts it 1–1.5 percentage points below the June forecast of 1.6%. Blocked ports, intensified Russian shelling and the postponement of some capital spending are among the cited reasons.
