Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu yesterday announced a multimillion-dollar aid package for the country’s struggling tourism industry which has been hit by a crisis with Russia and security concerns. Davutoglu said that a total of 255mn Turkish lira ($86.5mn) in financial aid would be given to Turkish tourist agencies while there would also be measures to help firms restructure debt. “These measures will be implemented quickly and we think that the package will rejuvenate the tourism sector,” Davutoglu told reporters in Ankara. “We are in a sensitive time but we will overcome the difficulties of the tourism sector and we will defend our positions as one of the most attractive destinations,” he added.
