Tourists head back to Moscow

by at 26/05/2010 18:09

Tourists are heading back to Moscow according to the city’s officials.

Figures released by Moscow’s Committee for Tourism suggest as many as 4.1 million guests could come to the city this year – a 2-3 per cent increase on pre-crisis levels.

But in the industry many feel that there is plenty to do before Russian tourism can catch up with other countries.

Neil McGowan, of tour operator “The Russia Experience”, urged Russia to look at neighbouring Estonia and Ukraine if it really wanted to cash in on the tourist dollar.

“Russia is still locked into believing that Lord & Lady Westerner live in a 52-bedroom mansion with servants and will stay at the Hôtel de Swank with a flat-screen dvd-player in the Jacuzzi,” More hotels are needed, especially in the two and three star sector.

I wish Russia would wake up to the foreign revenue potential, but they seem unbothered by it.”

Business, not pleasure

Polina Frolova, of IFK Hotel Management, suggested that Moscow’s main focus remained business travel, despite the success of recent large-scale events such as the 2008 UEFA Champions League final and the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest.

“I have to say Moscow isn’t, and never has been a tourist city – despite the fact that there are so many things to see here,” she said. “Neither Eurovision nor the Champions League had a noticeable effect on the flow of tourists. Several thousand of people from abroad come to Moscow for a few days for a huge event but that’s only small percentage of our total visitor numbers.

“I’m sure that tourism will increase when visa legislation becomes easier for visitors to negotiate, but first of all Moscow is a city of business travel.”

She noted that Moscow could call more visitors after improving of the global business climate rather than any tourist attractions.

Listen to the news and fill in the table:

Iceland volcano Lorna Go

Scientists say the cloud of ash from the eruption of the Icelandic volcano, which has caused

chaos to air travellers across Europe, appears to be changing. This report is from Lorna

Gordon.

Conditions on the ground immediately downstream of the volcano are extremely difficult.

A lot of ash is falling. Approximately ten centimetres of volcanic dust has settled on the

ground.

Visibility is down to just a few metres and the authorities are using specially modified

vehicles, armoured personnel carriers to visit and check on people who remain in the area.

But the top of the ash cloud reaching into the sky has lowered. It is no longer registering on

weather radar and scientists estimate its maximum height is now around three to four

thousand metres.

Much less ash is now being released into the atmosphere compared to the beginning of this

eruption and scientists say they believe the volcanic activity may now be entering a different

phase.

Wikileaks scandal could hit Russia-US reset

http://www.moscownews.ru/international/20101129/188237303.html
Moscow’s caped crusader has been unmasked in a diplomatic scandal which has left the US White House snarling with rage.

Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has apparently been nicknamed “Alpha Dog,” among others, in official communications between US politicians published by Wikileaks over the weekend.

And the Putin-Medvedev ruling tandem is dubbed “Batman and Robin” in US government circles.

According to confidential documents published by Wikileaks, senior US officials also fear that Russia’s notorious mafia has connections at the heart of the government.

And there are growing concerns over the ever closer relationship between Putin and Italian supremo, prime minister Silvio Berlusconi.

Junior partner

There has been long-running speculation over who rules the Kremlin roost, and while few will be surprised that the west considers President Dmitry Medvedev the junior partner, his identification as Robin to Putin’s Batman will raise eyebrows.

That was among the material reported by five international newspapers, The New York Times, The Guardian, Der Spiegel, Le Monde and El Pais.

Meanwhile Putin’s apparent superpowers are recognised as having limits, gzt.ru reported, citing reports that “unruly bureaucracy” meant even his decrees were often ignored.

But he has a potential ally abroad, according to the New York Times, which quoted a telegram saying Berlusconi “is increasingly becoming a mouthpiece for Putin” in Europe.

‘A virtual mafia state’

In British paper The Guardian, there are claims that Russian intelligence agencies use mafia bosses to carry out criminal operations.

One cable says the relationship is so close that the country has become a “virtual mafia state”.

For UK readers this inevitably draws links to the on-going Litvinenko saga, which returned to the news last week when the dead spy’s widow published new evidence linking Russian authorities to the 2006 poisoning.

Treason in the ranks

First lady Svetlana Medvedeva does not escape speculation either. According to the leaks she has a personal “black list” of officials who have not backed her husband.

The fateful document has allegedly blighted the careers of some officials.

And a telegram from the US State Department to the Moscow Embassy claims that she creates tension between unnamed rival camps, and provokes a lot of gossip, Der Spiegel claimed.

Lavrov surprised

Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said he was surprised at the interest over a “petty thief running around on the internet”.

And before the leaks were confirmed Lavrov also claimed that Russia had no similar problems with secret information entering the public domain.

“If they steal secret documents [in America], we do not have this happening here,” he said. “At least not in the same quantity.”

Wikileaks owner Julian Assange has previously threatened to publish similar compromising material about Russia, and reportedly met a journalist from Novaya Gazeta in Stockholm earlier this month.
