War in Ukraine hurts growth in Latin America
The Russian invasion of Ukraine takes its toll on Latin America and the Caribbean, rlowering its growth expectations between 2022 and 2024, predicted this Friday the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).

In the worst case, growth would slow from 2.1% to 1.2% in 2022, would be –0.4% (instead of 2.4%) in 2023, would recover in 2024 to 1, 3% (instead of 2.2%) “to later converge once more towards long-term growth of around 2.5%,” says the 2022 macroeconomic report for Latin America and the Caribbean.
