LUSAKA (Reuters) - Zambia's government said in a presentation on Tuesday that it was still optimistic that the economy would grow 6.6% this year.
The southern African country, which defaulted on its sovereign debt during the COVID-19 pandemic, has now restructured 90% of its debt, the finance ministry presentation also said.
The government estimates over 770,000 tonnes of copper was produced last year.
