KIEV, May 18 – The slow in growth of the Ukrainian economy in early 2012 is in line with the general trends of the global economy and is caused by the influence of negative external factors, which have to be compensated for mainly via the expansion of domestic demand, said Valeriy Lytvytsky, the head of the group of advisors to the National Bank of Ukraine governor.
"No economy this year avoided a slowdown, and the Ukrainian economy did not avoid the impact of external factors," he said in an interview with Interfax-Ukraine, commenting on statistics for individual sectors in April.
