“We used 2.5 billion rubles out of five. I think that until July we will use the remaining 2.5 billion for subsidies for our consumers. And so we ask for another 5 billion rubles for the fall “,” Interfax quotes the words of Yuri Barzykin.
The Vice-President of the PCT noted that in 2021 a large number of citizens of the Russian Federation took advantage of the tourist cashback program . However, according to Yuri Barzykin, the program does not determine tourist flows, but is only an incentive.
Earlier it became known that a new stage of the program will open on March 15.
