11.04.2013

The Mayor of Gdansk in Poland Pavel Adamovic plans to put signs in Russian on the streets of his city, Head of the Polish Cultural and Business Centre in Kaliningrad Tomash Omansky told ITAR-TASS. This is being done so that Russian tourists could feel at ease in our city, Omansky quoted the Gdansk Mayor as saying.

The mayor’s press secretary Anthony Pavlyak said that the idea of translating into Russian the names in the public places of Gdansk was the result of the growing number of tourists from Russia, especially, from the Kaliningrad Region.
