Besides, decrease of demand and global prices of major exported metallurgic and mining goods influenced the GDP growth and the budget incomes of Kazakhstan. Considering these results, we plan to update the (three year) budget, as we expect that this year it will be around 495 billion tenge ($3.3 billion) short of the target.
