In an interview aired on 1st January, the International Monetary Fund Managing Director stated, “we expect one-third of the global economy to be in recession.”
Kristalina Georgieva told this while speaking in an interview on CBS’s Face The Nation. She claimed that we are facing a tough year in terms of the global economy and this year will be tougher than the previous year. The reason for this will be the slowing down of the 3 largest world economies, the U.S., the EU, and China.
She also mentioned that the U.S. can avoid recession but the EU has already slowed down. The nations have been drastically affected by the war breakout between Ukraine and Russia. “Half of the EU will be in recession next year,” she added. Whereas China is having a tough year.
