On September 20, the Russian Trade Representation in Sweden hold the first Russian-Swedish Tourism Forum. The idea of ​​organizing such event came to the Trade Representative of Russia in Sweden A.V. Abramov in June. One of the reasons for it was the fact that millions of football fans visited the World Cup in Russia and until the end of this year FanId holders can visit Russia without visa.
