started this petition to
The foreign offices of European Countries who have issued these travel warnings.
False media reporting and politically motivated decisions have led to many governments banning or not recommending travel to The Red Sea area of Egypt even though not one single incident has occurred in the Red Sea area. We much like others living in Hurghada feel that an immediate change of policy needs to occur if many of the businesses are to survive this crisis. We are being punished for an incident that happened far away and it has totally decimated the tourist business in the Red Sea and other areas. Many locals employed in the hotels and businesses have lost their jobs and more than 40 hotels have closed. The foreign office of these countries need to lift the ban and to work with the Tour Operators to promote The Red Sea and Egypt as a safe place to holiday.
I fear if this does not happen many many more people and businesses will collapse with no way back.
