World Tourism Managers in San Sebastian
The unions have not chosen these days by chance to strike. During these days, the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) will gather in San Sebastian 300 authorities and representatives from 35 countries.
The initiative was presented by the Minister of Energy, Tourism and Digital Agenda of Spain, Álvaro Nadal, and the Minister of Tourism, Commerce and Consumption of the Basque Government, Alfredo Retortillo.
Nadal stressed that it is "one of the biggest events" in the field of tourism and that it will function as "an international visitor card that the Basque Country and San Sebastian have not had until now".
