REPORTAGE - Der Tourismus in Ägypten steckt in der Krise
January 22, 2015 - Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt: Police security in front of a bank. The area of Sharm el-Sheikh, in the south Egyptian Sinai facing the Red Sea, is one of the major winter holidays destinations for its climate and the beauty of the seabed. Tourism is the major Egyptian economic resource. Unfortunately, fears linked to the threat of terrorist attacks despite the large deployment of security, and the collapse of the Russian currency, are affecting the arrival of Russian tourists that had recently accounted for the majority of visitors. In the near future this could become a major problem for the Egyptian tourism industry, as hotels, resorts and restaurants are almost empty and several new construction projects have been put on hold.
