"Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to ask Mr Tajani a question. According to the figures available to us, the tourism sector is one of those that has responded best to the crisis, despite having seen a general decline because of it. Additionally, the tourism sector is giving the most encouraging and significant signs of recovery.
The European Union is the top tourist destination in the world by international arrivals and has huge potential for attracting tourists. Maximising tourism’s role as a driving force for growth and employment is therefore a priority in line with the Europe 2020 objectives. In particular, we need to strengthen links with emerging countries – Brazil, Russia, India and China – which account for several million potential European tourists, but we also need to build a professional workforce to deal with these new flows of tourists. What is the Commission doing in this regard?"@en1
