“Our economy over the past 1-1.5 years has been growing at an unprecedented high rate - at the level of 5-6%.

In my opinion, we should not expect the same growth rate, ”she said on the air of the ABC television channel.

At the same time, Raiomondo said that she could not predict a "serious recession" in the United States economy.

She referred to the experience of communicating with representatives of American business, which suggests that the risks of developing such a scenario are extremely low.

“The foundation of our economy is very strong.

Inflation is our problem, but it is also our key priority.

Therefore, in my opinion, we should not talk about the fact that a recession is approaching, ”she concluded.

Earlier, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said that, according to the fund, it will be increasingly difficult to avoid a recession in the United States.

IMF specialists also expressed the opinion that the United States needs to resolve disagreements with trading partners and cancel the restrictive duties introduced in recent years.
