KYIV, Oct 2 – Oxford Economics analysts have improved the forecast for Ukraine's economic growth in 2019 from 2.7% to 3.4% amid a general recovery in the economic situation and the appointment of a new government, but worsened the forecast for 2021-2022.

The strong mandate of the new government, clearer reform commitments, and steps to ease tension with Russia are contributing to economic recovery, according to the Oxford Economics report released on September 30.
