"It is necessary to make recreation popular in the whole territory of Ukraine", Mykola Tomenko, the Deputy Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine declared giving comments regarding the calls of the President of Ukraine to spend holidays in the Crimea.
"It is great that the President of Ukraine personally supports our project that was commenced under the slogan "Let us spend Holidays in Ukraine", M. Tomenko emphasised. The Deputy Chairman declared that he does not object the importance of Crimea in the system of Ukrainian recreation, though Ukraine possesses even bigger tourist and recreation potential, he is convinced. "It is meant here Zakarpattia, Prykarpattia, Popdillia and many other regions of Ukraine", he emphasised.
Thus, M. Tomenko is convinced that it is necessary to support the idea of recreation on the whole territory of Ukraine, not the Crimean Peninsula only, "as it will help not only in the recreation and health protection, moreover, it will help our citizens to learn our history and natural treasure of our state."
