NAIROBI, April 28 (Reuters) - Tanzania's economy is
expected to grow faster this year compared with a year earlier,
but performance could be dampened by effects of the war in
Ukraine, Finance Minister Mwigulu Nchemba said in a letter to
the International Monetary Fund.
In the letter dated April 4 and made public on Friday,
Nchemba said the economy was expected to expand by about 5.2% in
2023 from 4.7% a year earlier.
"We expect the economy to continue facing headwinds from
spillovers of the war in Ukraine in the near term," he said.
