RUSSIAN HOLIDAYS GET FOREIGN OFFICE OK
The travel industry has reassured
people heading for Russia that, despite
unrest in Chechnya, it's safe to go.
But the Foreign Office strongly advised
tourists to avoid the Chechen Republic
itself, nearby Dagestan and the Black
Sea holiday resort of Sochi.
However, Moscow and St Petersburg,
which are Russia's most popular
destinations by far, are hundreds of
miles from the conflict in Chechnya.
