Vladimir Putin sent greetings to the participants, organisers, and guests of the 5th Let’s Travel! International Tourist Forum.
The message reads, in part:
“Over the years, the forum has brought together representatives of major travel companies, relevant ministries and agencies, business and expert communities, and public organisations on its platform. It has made a significant contribution to the development of Russia’s tourism industry and the promotion of travel as an active, educational, and rewarding form of leisure.
I would like to note that in recent years, tourism in our country has been advancing dynamically, with its infrastructure improving and new routes and in-demand, creative tourism products being developed, catering to people of all ages. Naturally, the tourism industry serves as an important factor in strengthening the socio-economic potential of cities and entire regions, creating opportunities for modern jobs and increasing entrepreneurial activity in related sectors such as trade and construction, catering and traditional crafts. It also contributes to the preservation and revival of historical, architectural, and cultural landmarks.
I believe that the forum will proceed in a creative and constructive manner, and its outcomes will further contribute to the formation of a competitive tourism market in our country, the improvement of service quality, and the training of qualified personnel. Overall, it will help promote Russia as one of the most fascinating and hospitable travel destinations.”
