"The deficit of current account amounted to $4.3 bn by the results of nine months 2019. The growth was contributed by the increase of imports by $2.7 bn (against $1.8 bn by the results of nine months 2018) following growing delivery of non-food and investment goods," said Dosayev.
In his words, the deficit was also connected with the reduction of goods export by $0.9 bn due to lower oil prices.
