VOICED : Istanbul attack deals fresh blow to fragile Turkey tourism

German and Russian tourists, previously the largest groups, are now warned against visiting due to geopolitical tensions. Tourism is vital to Turkey's economy, with the government aiming for 50 million tourists by 2023, a goal now in jeopardy due to declining profits.
