In the UNWTO, there are plans to create a working group to support tourism and the economy of Ukraine.

Secretary-General of the UNWTO (World Tourism Organization), Zurab Pololikashvili, initiated the creation of a working group to support tourism and the economy of Ukraine. He made this announcement in his opening speech at the 25th session of the UNWTO General Assembly, which commenced in Samarkand, Uzbekistan.

In his address to the global community, Mr. Pololikashvili emphasized that the UNWTO should unite the efforts of all its member countries in the tourism community and do everything possible to revive inbound tourism in Ukraine.

"I am confident that the support of all UNWTO member countries will be very beneficial and will be a wonderful start to the revival of tourism in Ukraine. We can begin by organizing various events in relatively safe parts of the country or near the borders with neighboring states," suggested the UNWTO Secretary-General.

It's worth noting that on June 1, 2023, during the 68th session of the European Commission of the UNWTO, Ukraine was unanimously elected as the chairperson of this body. At the 69th session of the European Commission of the UNWTO, Ukraine, as the head of the European sector, presented the tourism development program for the region for the years 2024-2025.
