KIEV, Aug. 2 – Ukraine's real GDP growth in 2010 could be 3.8%, and 4.8% in 2011, compared to the fall of 15.1% seen in 2009, according to experts from governmental and nongovernmental analytical centers that took part in a consensus poll in July organized by the Ukrainian Economy Ministry.

"The average real GDP growth compared to March grew from 3.4% to 3.8%. In addition, the experts cut the growth range [the 3-4.5% range]… The bolstering of foreign economic activities and expansion of consumer demand will help the positive pace of economic development," reads a posting on the Economy Ministry's Web site.
