Ukraine ranked second among the markets exporting tourism to Egypt before the COVID-19 pandemic. Ukraine was also one of the first countries to export tourists to Egypt after the resumption of travel in July 2020. This confirms Ukraines state and citizens confidence in the precautionary and preventive measures as well as health controls that have been applied in the Egyptian resorts.
