Lazhar Akremi said the nation’s tourism industry had been “destroyed” following the attack in which 30 Britons were killed.
Speaking to The Times, Akremi, who was part of the crisis committee that responded to shooting at the Riu Imperial Marhaba hotel in June 2015, said the Tunisian people had suffered as a result of the downturn in travel to the country.
At the time of the attack Akremi was minister for relations liaising between government officials and the Tunisian parliament.
