National Centre RUSSIA and the National Exposition Centre "BelExpo" of the Administrative Affairs of the President of the Republic of Belarus signed an agreement on cooperation in the field of tourism. Its aim is to develop the tourism potential between the two countries and to demonstrate the closeness and commonality of the peoples on historical, cultural, and spiritual levels. As noted during the signing of the agreement by Natalia Virtuozova, Director General of National Centre RUSSIA, the creation of joint tourist programs will allow residents of Russia and the Republic of Belarus to rediscover the brotherly countries. She also congratulated colleagues from the National Exposition Centre "BelExpo" on the successful conduct of the exposition "My Belarus," which widely utilized the experience of the International RUSSIA EXPO at VDNH in Moscow. Now, the centres will jointly develop the tourism direction.

"The potential of the two countries today is enormous, and both sides are ready to accommodate a large mutual flow of tourists. On the eve of the 80th anniversary of Victory, it is very important for us to remember the heroism of the brotherly peoples through tourist routes to places of military glory. These include both seven-day trips and weekend tours. We will create conditions for our tourists to touch the great history and get to know each other better," emphasized Natalia Virtuozova.

As part of the agreement, the parties intend to develop unique excursion programs and tourism products with thoughtful logistics and diverse themes.

In turn, Sergei Baran, Director of the state enterprise "BelExpo," noted that routes dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War will be among the first to be developed this year. He added that the signed agreement opens up great opportunities in the field of tourism for the Republic of Belarus.

"Our exposition of the achievements of sovereign Belarus 'My Belarus' turned out to be bright and well-visited, partly thanks to the unique experience of the International RUSSIA EXPO at VDNH in Moscow. We continue cooperation with National Centre RUSSIA, and the agreement in the field of tourism opens even greater opportunities for us. We are very pleased that we have such a good and warm partnership with our colleagues," noted Sergei Baran.

He emphasized that citizens from Russia are eager to visit the exposition "My Belarus." In turn, tourists from the Republic of Belarus are expected at the National Centre RUSSIA, where two new large-scale expositions will begin in March. The first is an architectural one, where visitors can learn about the traditions and modern approaches to construction. The second is an interactive exposition "Journey through Russia," which will allow guests to visit different corners of the country — from Vladivostok to Kaliningrad. Here, one can see the natural beauty and achievements of the last 20 years in various fields: industry, science, culture, and others.
