Following the internal conflict in Syria, which has lasted for approximately 13 years, and the subsequent change in regime, a new era has begun. The Chairman of the Alanya Tourism Operators Association (ALTİD), Burhan Sili, evaluated the developments from a tourism perspective.
While the overthrow of the Assad regime in Syria continues to be a topic of global discussion, Burhan Sili, Chairman of the Alanya Tourism Operators Association (ALTİD), evaluated the impact of the developments on the region's tourism. "We do not expect significant changes in tourism in the short term," said Sili. "Unless there is a de facto intervention by Turkey, I do not believe that what is happening in Syria will have a positive or negative impact on tourism. As you know, the world has been under the influence of regional conflicts and civil wars in recent times. Especially due to our geopolitical location, we can be affected by the negative events happening around us in various ways. Our hope is that all these negative events will end soon, so that we can look to the future without problems."
