Acting Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatseniuk has accused Russia of an attempt to disrupt the tourist season in the Crimea and «lure» rest in Sochi. According to him, Russia wants more travelers went in Sochi for the Olympics was built a huge infrastructure, which now need to use. «Russia's intention to deprive the Crimean work, salary, as in Abkhazia, which is 6 years empty, and undermine the reputation of the Crimea, transfer streams of tourists in Sochi», - it has informed Ukrainian mass media.

The Russian foreign Ministry, in turn, called the Declaration of the Prime-Minister of Ukraine irresponsible. According to the Deputy Director of the Department of information and press office Maria Zakharova, the Ukrainian government is better to concentrate on ensuring the safety of tourists in the resorts of Western Ukraine. Let's remind, recently in the Rivne region, the bus with tourists was fired at from automatic weapons. People were going to rest in the Carpathians. The shelling was seriously wounded Russian.

Let's remind, the fall in demand in the Crimea at the Russian market began to statements of the Russian leadership regarding the possible introduction of troops on the Peninsula. According to tour operators, on the background of the unrest in Kiev were first isolated cases of cancellation of tours in the Crimea, and then more active and not only on the next date, but during the summer. As of the end of February, the fall in demand in the Crimea was at least 30% compared with the same period last year, and now sales and does stopped. For Ukraine as a whole is equally depressing picture.
