Saakashvili: Georgia's GDP growth to reach 7-8 percent in 2011

Georgia, Tbilisi, July 20 / Trend N. Kirtskhalia /

Georiga's GDP growth will reach 7-8 percent in 2011, Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili said at a government meeting in Kvareli July 20.

He said the figure will vary from 4 to 5 percent in 2010.

"This is good because we managed without any tragic losses to survive the global economic crisis, which suspended our development," Saakashvili said.

"After a year, we will return to the pre-crisis figures, and begin to implement our idea of becoming a European Singapore," he added.

The president stressed that the annual inflation rate will reach 5.7 percent.
