KYIV, Feb 4 – Growth of Ukraine's GDP in 2019 slowed from 3.4% in 2018 to 3.3%, while the drivers of this growth have changed, the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Agriculture of Ukraine said on Tuesday.

"The growth of the composite manufacturing index (CMI) for goods and services by main types of economic activities slowed significantly – to 1.6% in general in 2019, and in the last months of the year its decline was even observed. However, high domestic demand generated high rates in construction and trade and a number of industries in the service sector," the ministry said in the 2019 economic activity survey.
