thanks to prudent policies, we have a record regarding the central bank’s
foreign currency reserves, which amounts to approximately $17 billion, an
unprecedented figure in our history,” Khasawneh said.
He confirmed that
all targets were achieved in last year’s general budget in terms of public
revenue, exceeding 104 percent of the target revenue.
“We have been able to overcome the pandemic
crisis and we are in the recovery phase despite the challenges imposed on
supply chains and high prices of commodities and oil due to the
Russian-Ukrainian crisis,” Khasawneh added.
He drew attention
to the fact that, despite these challenges, Jordan had achieved a number of
economic achievements including a stable credit ratings.
He added “we
presented a general state budget to the Lower House that did not include
raising any taxes because we stand on solid and coherent ground to achieve
greater rates of economic growth.”
