According to Mariam Kvrivishvili, Georgia has very strong leverage and tools to strengthen its position in the international tourism arena and contribute to the development of world tourism.

"Of course, this, on the one hand, strengthens our position in the international arena and, on the other hand, gives Georgia very strong leverage and tools to contribute to the development of world tourism. Our country can be involved in making very important decisions, which, of course, will contribute to the recognition of our country, the rapid recovery and strengthening of its tourism industry," - said the Deputy Minister of Economy.

The Executive Board of the United Nations World Tourism Organization is composed of 35 member states and is the governing body of the UNWTO, which ensures the effective work of the organization and discusses the key issues of travel and tourism industry policy on the global agenda. Given its strategic location, Georgia will be able to protect the interests of both the Black Sea and Eastern European regions in terms of the development of tourism.
