London Reconsider its Advice to Tunisia Travelers As Soon As Possible

Britain, which recommended its tourists to leave Tunisia because of the risk of attack, wishes to return to that advice to travelers “as soon as possible,” said Tuesday its ambassador in Tunis.

British Prime Minister David Cameron, who met with his Tunisian counterpart Habib Essid, “clearly said that we want to see this advice to passengers as soon as possible,” said the Ambassador Hamish Cowell on private radio Shems FM.

“And for that we work closely with the Tunisian authorities for the implementation of all the necessary security. They (the Tunisians) have already made a great effort and we are seeing with these authorities can we do to be able to review this advice, “he added.

London has paid the heaviest price in the bloody attack claimed by the Islamic State group, which struck on June 26 in a hotel in Port El Kantaoui (center-east of Tunisia) and killed 38 tourists, including 30 Britons.
