Iran can boost tourism while adhering to principles: Raisi
“Today, there are a large number of people across the world, who are interested in visiting our country to see its beautiful nature as well as the ancient sites. However, enemies, through their Iranophobia [campaign], are trying to discourage them from coming to the country,” Raisi added.
He was speaking at the opening ceremony of the 17th edition of Iran International Tourism and Related Industries Exhibition which is taking place on Feb. 12-15 at the Tehran International Permanent Fairground.
The president noted that tourism is a key sector that helps boost non-oil economy.
Raisi said that his administration has already taken steps to boost tourism as it has dropped visa requirements for citizens of 33 countries seeking to visit Iran.
