Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation - Plenipotentiary Representative of the President of the Russian Federation in the Far Eastern Federal District Yuri Trutnev held a meeting in Ulan-Ude on the implementation of investment projects in the field of tourism in the Republic of Buryatia. During the meeting, the Deputy Prime Minister outlined the main requirements that must be observed when implementing investment projects in protected natural areas.

“There are some important aspects of the implementation of investment projects in Buryatia. First, we are talking about the protection of Lake Baikal and “specially protected natural areas”. Baikal is an exclusive territory, the only such lake on our planet. Is it necessary to create a tourist infrastructure here? – Of course, it is necessary. Tourist complexes, equipped with the necessary accomodation, are less of a burden on nature than wild recreation, which leaves behind not very pleasant traces. Our common task is to find solutions that will preserve nature, but at the same time create conditions for the recreation of citizens. It is necessary to find a balance between ecology and investment activities,” Yury Trutnev specified.
