The state budget in January-November was executed by 104% this year. The prime minister said that this is $1.7 billion more than expected. These funds were used to support citizens, the economy, and the defense sector.
Denis Shmygal added that the state budget deficit for 11 months amounted to only 1.4% of GDP due to a balanced and effective debt and budget policy.
