Turkey Tourist Stand Blocks Bulgaria at World Expo in London


Bulgarian tourism business representatives declared they were pleased with the appearance of the country’s stand at the 30th World Travel Market (WTM) tourism expo.

Bulgaria’s stand, positioned in the sector devoted to Asia and the Mediterranean, was however overshadowed by that of neighboring Turkey.

The entrance to the Bulgarian stand was obscured by a massive 6-meter wall built as part of Turkey’s tourist stand. Trade representatives attending the exhibition declared themselves infuriated.

“We shall write a protest letter to the organizers of WTM,” Ivo Marinov, Bulgaria’s deputy Minister of Economy, Energy and Tourism, told Pari daily.

This year, the WTM is hosted in London. The international event runs from November 9-12.
