In April 2010, a popular uprising toppled the previous regime and internal ethnic conflict in June 2010 exacerbated the already difficult political situation. The crisis has adversely affected economic activity and near-term growth prospects, straining the government's financial position, which has been worsened further by critical reconciliation, recovery, and reconstruction needs. Continued growth in Russia and Kazakhstan, combined with high gold prices, contributed to an expansion in remittances and gold exports by 33 percent and 74 percent, respectively.
