The pace of economic growth is ultimately impacted by events taking place in world politics, Medvedev told Rossiya 24's Dialogue tv program.

"A lot will depend on what will happen [in world politics]," Medvedev said, adding that because of the trade strife between the United States and China "the global economy is slowing down."

"We will have to take decisions on adjusting our development rate," Medvedev explained.
