Lawyers from Turkish International Law & Consulting Firm - Participated in “Morning in Petersburg” Program

On June 3, 2025, lawyers from the Russo-Turkish Law Firm, Funda Inal Chukavin and Elena Nazhiganova, appeared live on the “Morning in Petersburg” program on the Saint Petersburg TV channel. The discussion focused on protecting the rights of Russian tourists abroad facing health-related issues.
The experts addressed challenges faced by tourists with standard insurance offering minimal coverage, including insurance companies denying payouts, insufficient coverage amounts, substandard medical care in foreign hospitals, and obstacles to leaving due to unpaid medical bills. Special emphasis was placed on legal assistance options, including collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Health, and other institutions to arrange medical evacuation and safeguard citizens’ rights.

The lawyers’ presentation underscored the importance of legal awareness in preserving the lives and health of Russian tourists abroad.

Gratitude to Organizers

We express our heartfelt gratitude to the program’s producer, Andrey Volostnykh, and the entire Saint Petersburg TV team for the invitation and the opportunity to discuss this significant topic live on air.
