“Compared to last year, many more tourists from Ukraine come to Turkey. The number of guests from Ukraine is constantly growing, and I hope that we will receive many more tourists from Ukraine starting from June and July,” the minister told an Ukrinform correspondent.

He stressed that the amount of information in Ukrainian in hotels, prominent places, and various attractions is growing; in particular, the number of guides and information in Ukrainian in digital format is increasing.

“Many tourists from Ukraine visit Turkey and we try to make them happy,” the minister added.
