Moldova to host world tourist event in premiere

Chisinau, 3 June /MOLDPRES/- Moldova will host a meeting of the European Commission of UN World Tourism Organisation in 2017. The director of the Travel Agency, Stanislav Rusu, made the statement today. 

The event will facilitate Moldova's inclusion in the list of main European tourist destinations. "After organising the meeting, the Travel Agency is set to benefit from more projects at multilateral level. We are going to organise a conference on wine tourism in order to make an appeal to colleagues from EU to include our country in European wine road", Rusu said.

The meeting is to be held in May 2017. "I come with an appeal to the development partners to organise the event thoroughly. Given that each participant will pay transport and accommodation expenses, we will ensure the minimum costs but very important ones. They refer to level of organisation, trips, as well as presentation of tourism products", Rusu said.

The decision was taken in Vilnius, Lithuania, on 25 May 2016, within a meeting of the European Commission of the United Nations World Tourism Organisation. The event is carried out yearly with the participation of representatives of over 40 states, Moldova being a member since 2000.
