Türkiye's economy expanded 5.6% in 2022, official data showed on Tuesday but growth was expected to slow significantly to 2.8% in 2023 after earthquakes this month caused widespread destruction in the south of the country.
The economy had started cooling in the second half of 2022 with a decline in domestic and foreign demand, partly due to a slowdown in Türkiye's main trading partners because of the war in Ukraine, which hurt exports.
