UFA, 4 October 2017. /Bashinform News Agency, Gulfiya Akulova/. The capital of Bashkortostan - Ufa was chosen as a venue of the 47th Apimondia Congress and the "ApiExpo" exhibition in 2021. The country was determined by voting at the Congress of the International Federation of Beekeeping Associations "Apimondia" in Istanbul on October 3.
The Russian bid was presented on September 30. The Russian exposition became the largest and most visited at the exhibition. In addition to the Russian presentation, the bids of Serbia, Slovenia and Denmark were also presented in Istanbul.
