Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko: “It is important to open Russia to our tourists!”
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko said in an interview with RIA Novosti that the time has come for Russian tourists to invest not in Turkey, but in Russia.
Before the coronavirus in Russia, the model of domestic tourism was seriously disrupted, because a culture was created when our tourist went to vacation abroad <...> every year about $ 35 billion was spent by Russian tourists abroad. That is, every year for 20 years we have been taking money that was invested in the infrastructure of Turkey, Greece, Egypt and so on. Now is the time for Russia to take its due.”
“We have a unique advantage: a large and beautiful country with a unique historical, natural, recreational and cultural heritage. It is important to open Russia to our tourists. We launched a new national project on behalf of the Prime Minister this year, he explained.
Chernyshenko noted the importance of every child once a year to go to rest on the sea, improve his health.
“Although once a year there would be some educational, patriotic tourism. We have a very extensive and rich history that needs to be told and felt on the spot, looked at and, thus, the correct consciousness, understanding of roots, foundations will be formed.
