Russian PM pledges support to domestic tourism

MOSCOW, March 24. /ITAR-TASS/. Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev called for developing domestic tourism on Monday.

“There is one more area which I would like to discuss - domestic tourism, which is particularly important for young people because it promotes our culture. We have started paying attention to it recently, perhaps not as much as our friends, partners or rivals. But, nevertheless, things are changing. It is very important that our people develop a habit of spending their vacation in their home country, enjoying its history and culture,” the Russian prime minister said, adding Russia needed the infrastructure to develop domestic tourism.
