"Every year, Cercle Renaissance organizes a trip to a country ... This year we decided to go to Moscow and Crimea," RIA Novosti quotes de Rostolana.

According to him, in Crimea, the delegation visited Simferopol, Yalta, Balaklava, Sevastopol, Khersones, Bakhchisaray and Yevpatoriya.

“It was a friendly visit, bearing a cultural character,” said the head of the French organization.

De Rostolan noted Russia's significant investments in the region’s infrastructure, in particular, the construction of Simferopol Airport, Krymsky Bridge and highways.

“Joining (Crimea. - RT ) to Russia again provides significant opportunities. And, of course, Crimea will have significant success with tourists, ”he concluded.

In March, the French deputy from the Vaucluse department, Jean-Claude Boucher, shared his impressions of his visit to Yalta.

Crimea became the Russian region after a referendum held there in March 2014, at which most residents spoke out for reunification with Russia.
