RAS looked beyond the doubling of GDP

Proizvodstvo28-06-2007 The Academy of Sciences MEDT chided for excessive skepticism and promised that the GDP will grow faster than predicted by the officials. Experts estimate that the economy is now moving not just oil prices, but domestic consumer demand. A couple of years have doubled the salary increase today for the Russian economy can be said the main thing - it is growing rapidly. Putin's team proved that it can implement ambitious plans. Posed by the Russian president in 2003 challenge - to double GDP by 2012 - is close to realization. It is estimated that in 2003 the forecast level of GDP was 13.05 trillion. rubles ($ 409.7 billion for the corresponding exchange rate), then in the 2007 budget forecast of GDP is planned at 31.22 trillion. rubles ($ 980.2 billion at the exchange rate in 2002). That is, nominal GDP in 2007 more than an analog of 2003, almost 2,3 times (for the same dollars)! True, this should make allowances for inflation, consumer prices and other factors affecting the comparative analysis. With this in mind, from 2003 to the present day, Russia's GDP has grown so far only about 1,5 times, and can be roughly doubled by 2010.
