Europa de Leste com forte quebra económica

By Jordi Bou

May 15, 2020 - Os países da Europa de Leste – antes a zona com crescimento mais
rápido na UE – enfrentam a pior recessão desde a queda do comunismo,
mas prevê-se que recuperem mais depressa que os vizinhos do ocidente.

The virus outbreak will undo several years of solid growth in a region with economies highly tuned to the car industry and exports and which has outpaced richer western Europe.

The economies of eastern Europe states – Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Hungary, Slovenia, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia – will collectively shrink by 6.9 per cent this year, the European Commission predicts.

However, as lockdown measures are being lifted across the continent, officials are sounding more frequent forecasts of a recovery. According to the European Commission, the region could bounce back with 6.1 per cent expansion next year.

Much will depend on Germany, Europe’s largest economy and a key trade partner which shrank 2.2% in the first quarter.
