    The deficit increases from $200 to $300.

    Explanation:

    Current Account Balance before:

    $2000 - $1300 - $900 = - $200.

    Previously, the government had a current account deficit of $200.

    Now,

    $2000 - $1500 - $800 = - $300.

    The government has a current account deficit of $300.

    The current account deficit will increase by $100 to $300.
