Receiving an honorary doctorate at St. Petersburg State Service and Economy University, Minister of Culture and Tourism Ertuğrul Günay, stated that Turkey is amongst one of the top ten countries in the world in terms of tourism and their objective is to bring ten million Russian tourists to the nation each year.
According to Minister of Tourism Günay, in order to draw in additional Russian tourists, Turkey needs to increase its promotional programs. Explaining that 25 years ago Turkey embraced tourism as a serious policy, and have since been working on developing the nation's tourism infrastructure, Minister Günay states that they are very pleased with the increasing number of Russian tourists that come each year. "We are doing all that we can for it to increase further," says Günay.
