This fact check was adapted from Factograph.info.The growth of the Russian economy in the decade from 1999 to 2008 averaged 6.9% - the annual figures given by both the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and Rosstat (Russia’s state statistical agency) for this period converge.As for the next ten years – from 2009 to 2018 -- IMF and Rosstat data do not coincide in only two cases. Additionally, Russia's economic growth during that period averaged 0.97% per year, according to the IMF, while Rosstat says it grew 0.91% per year. In any case, both estimates indicate that Russia’s economy grew less than 1% per year
