Gross domestic product advanced 0.2% sequentially, reversing a 0.6% fall in the third quarter. "The growth was mainly supported by external demand and, after a long time, also by the final consumption expenditure of households," Vladimir Kermiet, director at the statistical office, said.
On a yearly basis, GDP decreased 0.2% in the December quarter versus a 0.8% contraction in the September quarter.
During the whole year 2023, the overall GDP showed a decline of 0.4% compared with 2022.
