The press release claimed, “In our previous statement, we have noted that Russian authorities did not discuss including Goa or India in the list of ‘safe’ destinations recommended by Russian government to Russian tourists. We say that Russian government only discussed the list of countries recommended for visits (holidays)”

With the out going of Turkey and Egypt of the list, Belyakova mentioned if India can become a friendly country and capitalize on the opportunity, at least some part of 7 million tourists can think of travelling to Goa. “Whether Goa is ready to host so many Russians and will India really become one of the “friendly countries” that was mentioned by the vice-speaker of the Russian parliament? Would taxi drivers not overprice and not be rude, seeing a white man, and the owners of houses and hotels give discounts to Russians who come always for more than 10 days of holidays,” she asked.
