YEREVAN, March 18. /ARKA/. Recovery in Armenia will become visible only in 2011 and 2012, Arsen Ghazaryan, chairman of the Union of Manufacturers and Businessmen of Armenia, said Wednesday in Novosti International Press Center.

He said that the country has already started recovering, but this is a complicated process that needs efforts from businessmen and the government.

In his opinion, reversion will be seen only in 2011 and 2012.

In the 2010 state budget, GDP growth is planned at 1.2%.
