Greece’s growth is expected to be “double the eurozone average” in 2023, at 2.4%, the European Commissioner for Economy, Paolo Gentiloni, said on Monday while presenting the European Commission’s spring 2023 economic forecasts.
“The European Commission has essentially revised its forecasts for growth in Greece upwards,” Gentiloni underlined. Specifically, the Commission forecasts 2.4 pct growth in Greece in 2023, up from its February forecast of 1.2% growth.
Gentiloni referred to figures of the last few days which highlight the good performance of the Greek economy.
“Overall I think the results are very positive, we have a forecast of 2.4% growth this year, which is twice the eurozone average, and of course we will see how things go next year,” the Commissioner said, adding:
“It is difficult for me to highlight the negative elements when we have a lot of positive elements.”
