The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine is considering strengthening the responsibility of tour operators for failing to fulfil their obligations, in particular for untimely transportation of groups of tourists, Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman has said.

"We are thinking about how to strengthen their responsibility, and the government is working on it," Groysman said at a meeting of the Verkhovna Rada on Friday.
