b. China’s long-term growth record in unsurpassed in modern history. (The remaining text is not included in this sample.)

Nigeria 

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor, Mr. Godwin Emefiele, has said the recent rebasing of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) will support its quest to be among the top 20 nations by 2020. 

According to Emefiele, the exercise which placed the size of the Nigerian economy as first in Africa and 26th in the world would also afford the country a more positive sovereign rating by international rating agencies such as the Standard and Poor's, Fitch Ratings, (The remaining text is not included in this sample.)

Russia 

Russia's gross domestic product growth forecast of 0.5% for 2014 may be revised upwards in September due to the slowing pace of a decline in investment, Economy Minister Alexei Ulyukayev said.

"For now our official (forecast) for this year is 0.5%, but most likely we will revise it in September, most likely upwards," Ulyukayev told journalists. (The remaining text is not included in this sample.)
