Jordan achieves record 36-pct rise in exports in 2022: deputy PM


AMMAN, March 4 (Xinhua) -- Jordan achieved an unprecedented 36-percent rise in exports in 2022 despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukrainian crisis that led to a hike in energy and commodity prices, a senior official said Saturday.

The high increase in exports of potash and phosphate was the major boost to exports, Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs Nasser Shraideh said in a press statement, adding that foreign investment in Jordan rose by 67 percent in 2022.
