Ukraine, Moldova to increase bilateral tourist flows


(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Ukraine and Moldova are cooperating to increase bilateral tourist flows and overcome the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in the tourism sector.

Head of the Ukrainian Hospitality industry Association Oleksandr Liyev said this during a press conference entitled "Presentation of Moldovan Tourism Products in Kyiv" held at Ukrinform on Tuesday, September 7.

“We decided to influence the increase in bilateral tourist flow - from Moldova to Ukraine and from Ukraine to Moldova. In particular, a year ago, the Hospitality Industry Association, at the initiative of the USAID EDGE project, which deals with Eastern Europe, began to cooperate with the National Inbound Tourism Association of Moldova (ANTRIM),” Liyev said.
