Deputy head of Armenian Travel Agencies Union Yeghishe Tanashyan
forecasts increase in European and American tourists inflow upon
opening of Armenia-Turkey border.
As he told July 21 news conference in Yerevan, tourists will be
interested in visiting Armenia through Eastern Anatolia, instead of
paying extra to some transit country to get to Armenia.
"The process will stimulate development of tourism in Armenia. We're
already negotiating the issue with our Turkish colleagues," Yeghishe
Tanashyan noted.
As he pointed out, last year, 580 thousand tourists visited Armenia,
with only 60-100 thousand arriving as a part of group tour.
