1 mission of Paraguay in Ukraine: Consulate of Paraguay in Kyiv, Ukraine. Addresses, phones and contacts.
Head of mission: Mr. Sergiy Golovko, Honorary Consul (as of 2010)
Paraguay, located in the heart of South America, offers a blend of history and natural beauty, making it an intriguing option for some Ukrainian travelers. Although it may not be widely recognized as a tourist hotspot, it presents unique experiences that reflect its diverse culture. With 11 million Ukrainians traveling abroad annually, a segment of this population may find Paraguay appealing.
Paraguay is generally considered a relatively safe destination for tourists, including those from Ukraine. According to the Global Peace Index, Paraguay ranks 71st out of 160 countries, significantly safer than Ukraine, which ranks 156th. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in Paraguay is higher at 7.8 per 100,000 people compared to Ukraine's 3.8. However, both countries have similar female murder rates at 1.9. When looking at organized crime, both countries have similar scores, with Paraguay facing challenges such as higher indices for foreign crime (8.5) and cocaine trade (7.0) compared to Ukraine. Overall, while Paraguay has its own crime issues, it is relatively safer than Ukraine, making it a viable option for tourists.
