CAIRO- Egypt has lowered its real gross domestic product (GDP) growth target for its upcoming financial year which begins in July to 5.5%, the cabinet said on Tuesday citing the planning minister.
Egypt lowered its target citing the effects of the Russia-Ukraine conflict on its economy, the statement added.
