Tourism development in terms of the pandemic: new trends and anti-crisis measures

The main trends in tourism development, which have emerged in the terms of the coronavirus pandemic, are analyzed in the paper. The anti-crisis measures to support the industry in the difficult period and experience of countering the spread of COVID-19 were considered by the case of Russia, Kazakhstan, China and Mongolia. These countries are characterized by integration cooperation on the implementation of international tourist routes. It was revealed that these countries have taken tough measures to limit the international tourism development. The main strategy of these countries is to rely on their internal recreational opportunities. The borders opening and the international tourism recovery will be slow and uneven. The need to update the integration processes in the field of tourism is substantiated not only on the principles of mutual benefit and joint development, but also of mutual responsibility and preparedness for crises and their management. The research results can be used in the preparation or correction of conceptual, strategic and program documents for the tourism development both at the national and regional levels, especially in the post-COVID period.
