Egypt will participate for the first time since 2015 in this year’s iteration of the OTDYKH LEISURE2017 tourism expo, which runs from Tuesday to Thursday in Moscow, Egyptian Tourism Federation acting head Karim Mohsen tells Reuters. The Tourism Ministry’s Tourism Promotion Authority and the Federation (standing in for the private sector), will represent Egypt at the exhibition. This comes as Egypt is preparing for the expected resumption of Russian flights, which have been suspended since the Metrojet flight crash in 2015.
