I cannot help but mention that for the entire last year the entire manufacturing sector demonstrated high results and confident growth. In 2022 the industry's output growth rate totaled 123.5% as against 2021. We've been seeing positive dynamics this year, too: in Q1 2023 the growth rate totaled 125% as against the same period of last year. Despite complicated conditions our manufacturing sector is on a trajectory of confident and dynamic growth. Worker collectives should be credited with the accomplishment.”
