According to data of the National Statistical Institute and the Bulgarian National Bank, the damages incurred by the tourism sector by September this year amount to nearly EUR 2.1 billion. The losses from internal and inbound tourism may exceed EUR 2.5 billion for the whole year, Minister Nikolova added.
