Facts

Economy
Little decentralization since the soviet era; almost 80% of industry remains in state hands, with significant renationalization since 2005. Market reform and privatization are moving at a snail's pace. Traditionally strong industrial and agricultural bases. Heavily dependent on trade with its closest ally, Russia. Still impacted by economic and health consequences of the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster.

The statistics are meant to give an impression, not to stigmatise. Statistics taken from "Operation World, 7th edition, 2010", see also www.operationworld.org
