The association “Safety without boundaries” (SSF) at the beginning of every month publishes a list of 12 countries with the highest level of danger for tourists for the previous month.
This rating is composed on the base of the alerts received from these countries from tourists and immigrants living there.
The SSF has already published the list of 12 major countries (excluding such countries as Iraq, Afghanistan and Somali) from which the biggest amount of recourses was received.
The force-majeur situations such as epidemiological threats and natural disasters were not included. The danger mostly was determined by the acts of terrorism, widespread social disorders, anti-Semitic conflicts and repressions.
Here is the list of 12 most unsafe countries for tourism:
* Algeria
* Colombia
* Egypt
* India
* Israel
* Kenya
* Lebanon
* Nigeria
* Pakistan
* Russia
* Sri Lanka
* Turkey
This is not the first rating of such a kind performed by the various publications and analytical agencies. Recently there was another rating of the most dangerous countries in the world. Actually, countries and their governments that are located at the tops of such ratings are doing their best to get rid of these. Mozambique has become one of the most attractive places for tourists when only 15 years ago a severe civil war was tearing the country apart.
And of course, the positive ratings that include the most attractive and secure countries of the world are the target of the touristic marketing departments of the governments of many countries. There are ratings of the most attractive countries, best cities, the title of the world cultural capital and many others. There are also amusing ratings that include various funny incidents that happened in the countries of the world.
