The international situation and the economic crisis have made significant adjustments to the plans of our compatriots for their summer holidays. The All-Russian Center for the Study of Public Opinion and research from independent travel agencies made it possible to find out where Russians are vacationing in 2016 or planning to vacation. The statistics turned out to be disappointing.

Instead of rest - work

As statistics show, compared to last year, the number of our fellow citizens who plan to spend the summer at home has increased significantly (by 5 percent of the number of respondents). 45 percent of adults will not go anywhere, every third child will remain at home for the entire holiday. It is worth noting that almost every second Russian is kept at home not by a lack of desire to see the world and unwind, but by a simple lack of funds. Another 17% intend to work all summer. 13% find themselves confined to their permanent place of residence by some illness.

In addition to those who stay at home, there is a large number of Russians who intend to use it for recreation. According to a foreign travel agency, such number is 44%. Russian sociologists counted slightly fewer adherents of holidays on the hacienda. According to the results of their research, 35% of Russians vacation at their dachas in 2016. Statistics show that Russians have suddenly become very fond of holidays at the dacha: over the past 12 years, the number of people wishing to spend their holidays at the dacha did not exceed 26 percent, and more often remained at around 20 percent. Russians also have not sent children to their dachas in such large numbers in recent years as in 2016: 22 percent of our young fellow citizens will spend their holidays in a garden plot. Only one out of ten Russian schoolchildren will attend a country camp in 2016.

Tourist destinations – 2016

Every year, many Russians relax, traveling around Russia and around the world, visiting various resorts. After the annexation of Crimea to Russia, there are more and more people in our country who want to relax on this peninsula. Ten years ago, between one and two percent of Russians spend their vacations here; last year, 7 percent of our fellow citizens already vacation here; in 2016, 8 percent of Russian families plan to vacation in Crimea. The same number of families intend to visit the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus. Every tenth person chooses other tourist routes within the country.

Only three percent of VTsIOM respondents are going abroad in 2016. This is half as much as last year and the year before, three times less than in 2013. This is due, first of all, to a lack of funds. On average, Russians are willing to spend a little more than 33.5 thousand rubles on vacation, while a vacation for two with a flight, according to tour operators, will cost at least 100-120 thousand rubles, since the cheapest resorts are closed to Russian citizens in 2016. This, by the way, is the second reason for the decrease in the number of Russians who are vacationing outside the former Soviet Union this year.

Usually Russians vacation in Turkey, Egypt, and a little less often in Tunisia, since it is all-inclusive and cheaper than even in Sochi. In 2016, after a plane crash in Egypt, terrorist attacks in Tunisia and the bombing of a Russian plane by Turkey, these tourist destinations were closed. You have to choose from more expensive ones. According to tour operators, this year the majority of Russian tourists will go to Greece, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Spain, and Cyprus. Statistics say that this is where people buy tickets with the greatest pleasure. The top ten tourist destinations that have become popular also include Italy, Israel, Vietnam, Thailand, and Barcelona. Holidays in the Maldives and Seychelles are in demand among a small category of our compatriots who vacation here almost every year. Not all Russians who wish can afford such a vacation.

Sociologists asked how Russians would like to spend the summer of 2016 if they could afford everything. Statistics showed that in their dreams, Russians vacation in Crimea (36%), on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus (23%), and abroad (21%). 12% of Russians dream of traveling around the country. Only every tenth would remain at home, and the same number would spend the summer at the dacha.

Elena Pronina

A lot of Russians come all year round to the Pridneprovsky sanatorium, which is located in the Gomel region of the Rogachevsky district on the banks of the Dnieper River, they provide good treatment and recreation, especially Russians like Rogachvskaya condensed milk, they go there for this sweetness and relaxation, sometimes there is even no room .

Russia is huge, everyone has different interests, and financial capabilities are also different. Some go abroad, others vacation in Russia.

Those who prefer to spend their holidays by the warm sea go on holiday to hot countries or to Russian resorts: to the Crimea, to the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus, to the Sea of ​​Azov. Many travel to neighboring Abkhazia.

Of the foreign tours in recent years, Southeast Asia has been popular among Russians: Thailand, China, Indonesia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Goa (India), etc. Türkiye and Egypt are also popular. Among European countries, the most popular are Spain, Cyprus, Greece, Bulgaria, in winter – Finland and ferry cruises to Sweden. Diving enthusiasts vacation in the Maldives, surfing enthusiasts fly to the Dominican Republic (there is a Russian surfing school there, which is convenient).

Popular holiday destinations in Russia: Baikal, Altai, Karelia, Kamchatka. This includes fishing, mountains, river rafting, geysers. Tours along the Volga, to the cities of the Golden Ring, to St. Petersburg and Moscow are popular. Many Russians spend their holidays at their dachas, camp sites, and country hotels (boarding houses).

And where do Russians vacation..., from the North Pole to the exotic Dominican Islands (judging purely by myself).

We are Russian people, we are adapted to any weather, be it HEAT plus 35 degrees, be it FROST minus 45, we will definitely survive... and most importantly, we are comfortable in any weather, that’s why we are Russians...

If earlier Russian speech abroad could be heard either at sports competitions (competitions), and even in emigrant circles, and in the Warsaw Pact countries, now it is heard almost all over the world. Because now Russians vacation where their wallet and desires allow them to go: from the Arctic to Antarctica. however, it must be said that many continue to relax at their dachas, because you don’t go abroad every weekend.

In our Northwestern region, many people like to spend holidays (May, New Year holidays) or just a weekend in neighboring Finland. And there are a sufficient number of such people, so that on the pre-flight day there is a queue at the border of those wishing to leave, and on the last day off there is a queue of those returning to Russia. It’s getting to the point that some people are already going to Finland to pick mushrooms. I won’t say that there are any special conditions for the growth of mushrooms, there are just significantly fewer people who collect these mushrooms there.

If you take a seaside holiday, many traditionally prefer to go to the Russian Black Sea coast. Or to the warmer and shallower Sea of ​​Azov. And I noticed this feature. There are two categories of people: those who prefer to vacation in Crimea and those who go on vacation to the Black Sea in Russia. So, if it is not possible to go to their favorite coast or they want to change their holiday destination, these people would prefer to go abroad than to exchange Crimea for Sochi or vice versa.

And the concept of rest is very different for everyone. Someone considers the time he spent fishing as a vacation and will go to Finland, the Barents Sea, and maybe even to Kachatka for this. And someone prefers a quiet hunt over everything and wanders through the forest with a basket. and this vacation is the best for him. Well, some people don’t imagine themselves cooking food during their vacation, and vacation for them is all-inclusive, and therefore these are boarding houses, sanatoriums and hotels.

Personally, I don’t like to eat by the clock, it stresses me out. What kind of vacation is this? Therefore, I prefer rooms with the possibility of cooking, or, in extreme cases, only breakfast. I also don’t like the crowd of people standing at the buffet table and a large number of compatriots on vacation)).

Well, I think many people know that Russians love to relax in Bulgaria, Spain, Greece, Turkey, Egypt and Tunisia. Perhaps on these routes the majority of tourists are from Russia.

In fact, Russians really love to relax and visit various resorts and countries. The number of vacationers grows every year. At the moment, the number of Russian tourists to all other countries of the world last year amounted to 12 million people. That is, every tenth person in Russia. The most visited countries are Turkey, Egypt, Cyprus, Israel, Spain, France, Italy, Czech Republic, Austria, Greece.

More and more often, clients come to our agency with this question. As you understand, in 2014 - especially...

In most southern countries, the main trends of the season have appeared - these are the so-called “No Russian tours” - “tours without Russians”.

“Our Russia” has infuriated both Europeans and its own compatriots.

Egypt, the most visited country by Slavic tourists. Did you know that in Egypt there is a taboo on the left hand? She is considered unclean. It cannot be used to take food or point at people. So, if you are left-handed, take note.

In India, for example, the host country itself is forced to adapt to the mysterious Russian soul. For young ladies who do not hide their charms, they even published a special booklet. Well, you can’t sunbathe topless in India. But who is the Russian decree?

Well, what have Russian vacationers achieved with such permissiveness? There are already tours “without Russians”. Hotel owners were forced to choose: a European or a Slavic tourist.

The trend, in connection with the Kremlin’s policy, has worsened not only in Ukraine, but throughout the World. For example, the Internet is filled with signs like these from restaurants and hotels at various resorts:

Our fellow tour operators have begun to introduce the “Hotel without Russians” filtering function into their online tour search engines:

So where are those treasured places where the sun is brighter, the liver is healthier, the nature is more beautiful (because there are no Russians)?

Previously, tourists were worried about how not to lose money and documents on vacation. They were concerned about the problems of adapting the body to climate and food. But... Everything faded before a new task - how to avoid interfering with Russian tourists on vacation. Moreover, this problem worries Russian tourists themselves! But others.

Many sins are attributed to those first Russian tourists. Moreover, according to eyewitnesses, they commit all these sins while drunk. We take the beach. Okay, not drunk, but... noisy, unceremonious (the Moscow accent at this time begins to irritate beyond measure). Some are stuffy, others are drafty, others read fairy tales to children, but the whole beach can hear them. And what is stuffy for one and drafty for another is also heard by the whole beach. Evening on the hotel grounds - a song is pouring out! Two o'clock in the morning - unbridled loud fun. Four in the morning - inaudible screams and groans. Loud.

Ours, of course, will be more intelligent. By the way, now there is absolutely no sarcasm - all foreign partners say that Ukrainian tourists are distinguished by their curiosity. They are interested in everything: history, how many people live, how much they earn, environmental issues. And Ukrainian tourists will prefer an excursion to a good party! Where - oh horror! - they are often waylaid by drunken Russians (who had previously attended the same party, apparently).

How to avoid this? For example, Europeans, whose proximity to us on vacation is preferable. There is one very picturesque village in South Africa - what nature! What sunsets! European tourists have the most fashionable trend. There are no Russians, but neither are ours! The hotel is on the mountain... that is, not on the first coastline, as all the neighbors in the former Soviet space want.

Or the wonderful islands in Thailand - Lanta and Katao. Europeans dote on souls. For us, it’s the countryside. And a magnificent hotel in the Emirates in the desert? An oasis of peace and comfort. But there is a transfer to the sea. That's why…

There are many such examples. There is only one conclusion - Russian tourists are everywhere where we are, because we often like the same thing! We have similar tastes and preferences. The nature of our desires is rooted in our shared Soviet past. And in order to change the conditions of rest, you need to change yourself. Which is the hardest thing.

But if you are ready to change your holiday criteria, then here are our simple recommendations on where and how to go to avoid meeting your neighbors:

1. Get away from the sea. Don't look for a hotel on the first coastline. Hotels on a cliff above the ocean are what you need.
2. Pay attention to unpromoted tourist routes (the same Central Asia (Uzbekistan), for example, in Europe - Norwegian fjords, islands in Thailand, see above).
3. Avoid charters, avoid group transfers.
4. Create your own routes, ask the travel agency manager for exclusive offers (yes, it’s more expensive).
5. Pay attention to hotels located in low-rise buildings.
6. Try relaxing on mountain lakes.
7. Rent yachts.
8. Book excursions in English.
9. Take some rest during the off-season.

By adhering to these simple rules, you will change the flavor and content of your trip. It is useless to look for paths untrodden by Russian tourists. Russians (Muscovites) began to travel en masse before us. And, yes, they introduce fashion in certain directions. Three years ago, Muscovites fell in love with the Philippines, then it was Kenya’s turn. Now all this is becoming popular among us.

And most importantly, relax in the company of like-minded people. Divers, climbers, fishermen - there is a common cause here and there are no nationalities with their own characteristics. Having a varied and bright holiday, nothing in the outside world will confuse you, and your emotions will be the most positive!

Russians are more actively exploring foreign resorts. According to official statistics from Rostourism, over 9 months of 2011, 11 million 370,000 Russians went abroad on vacation. This is 11% more than in the same period in 2010. Rostourism has not yet calculated data on departures for the entire year 2011.

But such information has already been prepared by the countries where the Russians traveled. The most popular tourist destination among Russians remains Türkiye and it is unlikely that any state will be able to compete with it in the near future.

According to official statistics from the Turkish Ministry of Tourism, 2 million 714 960 Russians visited the country in 2011. For comparison, in 2010, 2.4 million Russians visited Turkey for tourism purposes. Interestingly, for the first time in history, Russians in Turkey have overtaken the Germans in terms of the number of vacationers. The gap, however, is small - only 400 people, but the Turks assure that this trend satisfies them. In the end, Russians, even taking into account their favorite all inclusive, spend significantly more on vacation than Germans.

In second place in popularity among Russians, Spain, which was visited by 918,573 guests from Russia in 2011. According to the Spanish Institute of Tourism Research, tourist flows from Russia increased by 41.8% compared to 2010.

Catalonia remains the most popular region among Russians - it received almost 60% of the total tourist flow (495,000 people). More than 100,000 Russians (12%) visited the Canary Islands, followed by the Balearic Islands (85,300 tourists) and Andalusia (60,200).

Closes the top three France. And although official annual statistics have not yet been calculated there, the French tourist office EUROMAG assured that the number of Russians in 2011, according to preliminary data, increased by 20%. Considering that 680,000 guests from Russia visited France in 2010, therefore, last year the tourist flow exceeded 800,000 people.

This is significantly more than, for example, in Italy, where official visit statistics have been calculated for only 9 months - during this time 465,268 Russians arrived. Compared to the same period in 2010, the growth was 29%. At the end of the whole year, based on trends, Italy is allowed to gain a foothold in fourth position.

But some Italian regions showed record numbers for the growth of Russians. For example, 43% more Russians visited Florence in 2011 than in 2010. And the growth of Russian tourist flow to Venice amounted to 45%.

Italy can share fourth place with Czech Republic, which was visited by 569,961 Russians throughout the year. Last year, the flow of tourists from the Russian Federation to the Czech Republic increased significantly: if in 2010 413,756 Russians visited this country, then at the end of 2011 their number increased by 156,000. The growth was almost 38%.

Following the Czechs is Austria, for which last year was a record year for Russian guests. As the magazine was told EUROMAG According to the Austrian tourism office, 400,396 Russians visited the Alpine republic last year, which is 31% more than the year before. And the number of overnight stays increased by 25.6%, exceeding 1.5 million.

The Austrians especially note that Russians began to visit Austria much more often than before in the summer. For example, the number of overnight stays in Vienna during the summer months increased by 30.4%, but Tyrol showed the greatest increase - 31.1% more Russians visited this federal state over the entire year.

Currently, Russia ranks 11th among other countries in the statistics for the number of overnight stays in Austria.

IN Greece Russians began to travel more by almost 37%. The record-breaking country for the speed of issuing Schengen visas to Russians (2-3 days) received 380,729 Russian tourists last year (sixth place).

An eternal competitor is coming on the heels of Greece - Cyprus. Over the year, more than 330,000 Russian citizens visited the island, which is almost 100,000 more than in 2010.

Currently, the Russian market for Cyprus is the second largest after Great Britain and, as the Cypriots say, in recent years it has “grown by leaps and bounds.” For comparison, in 2005, fewer than 100,000 Russians visited Cyprus. The Cyprus Tourism Organization predicts that already in 2012 the number of Russian guests will exceed 400,000 people.

Russians hold second place in the number of tourists in Estonia- the Finns occupy the first place there by a huge margin. According to the Estonia Department of Statistics, 203,204 tourists from Russia visited the country last year. But at the same time, if the increase in tourist flow from Finland was only 1% (841,000 Finns visited Estonia), then the increase in Russians was 43%, and compared to 2009 - 116%.

There are 11% more Russians in Croatia- the Balkan state was visited by about 190,000 people, who spent more than 1.6 million overnight stays (+8%).

And closes the top ten Switzerland, which last year received 179,168 tourists from Russia, is 14% more than in 2010. And the number of overnight stays increased by 10% - to 513,700, they reported EUROMAG at the Swiss tourism office. For comparison, the growth of tourist flows from Russia to Switzerland in 2010 was only 3%, and in the crisis year of 2009 there was a decline of 0.5%.

However, it can oust Switzerland Great Britain, which received 158,000 Russians in three quarters. Preliminary data for 2011 will be published in April, the magazine was promised EUROMAG at the Russian office of Visit Britain. In 2010, the United Kingdom admitted 170,000 Russians in 12 months.

Following behind the United Kingdom is Norway, which grew by 8%. According to the SSB (Statistical Central Bureau), almost 90,000 Russians visited the Scandinavian country, making 186,832 overnight stays. However, the increase in tourist flows from Russia to Norway in 2011 was significantly less than in 2010, when it increased by 18% compared to 2009.

Growth of tourist flow in Belgium amounted to 33.1% - more than 84,000 Russians visited it during the year.

I also added Slovakia: the increase in tourist flow there was almost 30%. The number of Russian tourists increased from 21,425 to 27,776 people, who made 105,242 overnight stays in the country (this is 33% more than in 2010). The average number of days that Russians began to spend in Slovakia also increased slightly - from 3.7 to 3.8.

The leader in the growth of tourist flows from Russia was Albania. As Albanian Ambassador to Russia Sokol Gioka said at a press conference in Moscow, the flow of tourists from Russia to his country in 2011 increased by 70% - to 8,000 people.

Germany According to the German tourist office, almost 20% more Russians visited in 2011 than a year ago. They could not give absolute figures, but they assured that Russia was among the top ten in terms of the number of tourists, after Holland, Switzerland, the USA, Great Britain, Italy, Austria, France, Belgium and Denmark. And in terms of growth dynamics, Russia ranks sixth, following Brazil (23%), India (22%), China (21%), Poland (22%) and Hungary (21%).

Hungary in terms of the number of nights spent by Russians, it increased by 21% - 432,715. Interestingly, the Russians set an absolute record in the last month of the year: the number of nights spent by tourists from Russia in December amounted to 26,510, which is 52.7% more. The most visited region of Hungary was Budapest, where Russians spent 255,612 (+13.5%) overnight stays.

The Russians set records in Ireland- in 9 months of 2011, 1215 Russians visited the emerald island for tourism purposes, which is 40% more than in the whole of 2010. Apparently, the simplification of the visa regime has had an effect (since July, Ireland has been allowing Russians in with a British visa).

But at the same time, it is interesting that many more Irish people visited Russia - in the first nine months of last year, 5,591 Irish tourists visited the Russian Federation (an increase of 21%).

The list of countries that do not like tourists from Russia has expanded in recent years. At the same time, residents of those places that are becoming more and more popular among Russians as resorts have joined the ranks of Russophobes. Due to the bad behavior of some compatriots abroad, the stereotypical thinking of the “hosts” and differences in cultures, Russian tourists may encounter rudeness and aggression from the host country on vacation.

Baltics. Once in the Baltic countries, you will probably notice that the opinions about Russia and Russians contained in the local media reflect the opinions of ordinary citizens much more than is commonly believed. The image of Russia as an occupying country, which has been imposed on the Balts for about 20 years, has become firmly entrenched in the minds of young people and is perceived extremely negatively. Thus, a Russian who decides to vacation in Lithuania, Latvia or Estonia may encounter rudeness and rudeness. It will be better for you if you do not know local languages ​​- you will save your nerves. It is especially not recommended to know what “Russian pig” sounds like in Latvian, Estonian or Lithuanian. “A friend living in Riga, seething with anger, voiced to me the comments Latvians made to us, based on the fact that we are both Russian tourists and do not know the language,” says Anna. “The most interesting thing is that when they say nasty things to us, smiled."

In order to receive the best service in local restaurants and cafes, it is best to communicate with each other in English, advise experienced tourists from Russia. When communicating in Russian, you risk waiting for your order for as long as you like. “We were traveling on the Moscow-Vilnius train. When it was our turn in the dining car at the bar counter, the bartender began to serve the Estonian woman standing behind us, and both he and she showed with all their appearance that it could not be otherwise,” - says Irina.

Ukraine, more precisely, its western part. No matter how much you try to talk to the hotel staff or waiter in Russian, nothing will work; they will still answer you in Ukrainian - out of principle. No one here believes that a Russian tourist may really not know what chorna kava is. “I couldn’t communicate with the waiters at all,” says Alexey. “They didn’t react at all to my Russian remarks. Orders had to be made through my Kiev friend. For two days, not a single, indeed not a single, waiter answered my questions. requests made in Russian."

In Lviv, the Kryivka restaurant, dedicated to the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) and the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), is thriving. There are anti-Soviet and anti-Semitic posters on the walls, and the names of the dishes on the menu will not excite the appetite of every Russian: fried crucian carp “Muscovites drunken crucian carp,” buckwheat “Everyday Life of the Wehrmacht,” cocoa “Childhood of Stepan Bandera.” But in order to be able to examine the interior of “Kryivka” and get acquainted with the menu, you need to know the password to enter the establishment - the organizational greeting of a member of the Bandera movement “glory to Ukraine” (in response - “glory to the heroes”). After a successful exchange of code words, the guard will ask you to swear that you are not a Muscovite or a communist.

If during the day the health of a Russian tourist in Lviv, by and large, is not in danger, then at night you can run into ill-wishers based on your nationality anywhere - even on the square of the Lviv Opera House. An ill-wisher can be recognized by the loud cry of “Muscovites to knives!”, and it is better not to wait for what will follow him. “We were almost beaten in the very center of Lvov just because we were Russians. Militant-minded young people, having heard Russian speech, ran up to us, began shouting obscenities in broken Russian, offered to fight, accompanying their proposal with active gestures - so that we “They understood, apparently,” says Alexey. “They fell behind when they found out that there were Ukrainians in our company - they decided to let us go in peace.”

Türkiye. The more holidays in this country gain popularity among Russian tourists, the less local residents enjoy their arrival. This is especially true for the female part of the population. Due to the thriving sex tourism in the country, women of Slavic appearance are increasingly faced with hostility from Turkish women. Turkish men are more supportive of Russian women, but they say about men that they do not understand what a family is, so they allow women to behave promiscuously. Turks often present complaints to Russians that have already become banal: a love of alcohol and fighting, an inability to behave at a buffet table. But there are also more original statements. “My wife doesn’t like Russians, she says that they all have AIDS,” a Turk selling souvenirs in a hotel shop shared with a Russian tourist. “After which the interlocutor hastened to assure me that this is nonsense, and he, of course, does not believe in it,” says Evgenia.

France, Courchevel b. Russians began to gain interest in the Courchevel ski resort a few years after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Russian tourists of that time are, of course, strikingly different from the current visitors to this prestigious resort. But despite the fact that the Russian oligarchs who come to the Alps today are sophisticated, educated people with good taste, the French do not favor them and do not want to be neighbors with them during their vacation. Actually, no one wants to live next to Russians during the “Russian seasons” in Courchevel. The behavior of rich Russians seems too shocking and even indecent to Europeans. In January 2007, billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov was arrested at the fashionable Byblos hotel in the company of 7 women on suspicion of organizing a pimping network. True, then all charges against Prokhorov were dropped and they apologized for the detention; the French were unable to prove the indecency of the actions of the Russian tourists. However, they still don’t favor Russians, because they all wear T-shirts with the inscription “Russia”, every restaurant has a menu in Russian, and the vodka ordered at the bar is served with pickles without any questions asked. “And my French husband never tires of being surprised: where do they get so much money?!” says Daria, who has lived in Paris for 10 years.

For the period between the New Year and Orthodox Christmas, as well as at the beginning of March, the British and the French themselves have to postpone their vacation in the French Alps. “The French say that during the “Russian seasons” they have nothing to do there, and sigh with nostalgia,” says Daria. “They believe that the Russians took Courchevel from them, and cannot forgive them for this.”

True, there is a small part of the French who are happy about the massive influx of Russians. These are service personnel who remember our compatriots with gratitude because of the colossal tips.

India, Goa. It looks like Russian tourists have fallen out of favor at their favorite resort. Goa's tourist honeymoon with Russia is over, The Times of India stated in February. Russian tourist visas are either expired or extended for a small bribe. Russians do business in Goa, commit crimes, attack local residents and with such behavior terrify Indians and scare away tourists from other countries - jeopardizing the well-being of the state's tourism industry, the newspaper writes. “We’ve never had problems before with the British, the Germans, the Scandinavians or even the hippies since the 70s,” the publication quotes George Fernandes, president of the Goa Tourist Taxi Association. “The Russians come and eat our bread. They do private cabs, meet us at car at the airport of their compatriots and do it under the guise of driving their friends. What, friends come to see them every week?!" Russian tourists are representatives of the lower classes of society; they are hostile by nature, they believe in Goa. The companies they created in Goa do not pay taxes, and the Russians not only engage in crime themselves, but also represent a convenient environment for Indian criminals. Indian politicians do not deny that they once benefited from tourists from Russia, but note that they lost even more. And local residents say that they will not tolerate hostile attacks from the Russians, and promise to pay them in the same coin.
