Crimea to establish "association of friends"

The association of "friends of Crimea", which will unite politicians and economists from different countries, will be established in October of this year. 

Ex-adviser of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Jean-Pierre Thomas, proposed this initiative during the Yalta international economic forum.

"This could be a large association that will show Crimea to the entire world and make it the most interesting place for tourists and business," he said.
