(22 Jan 2016) US Vice President Joe Biden, together with his family, laid flowers on Friday at the site of the suicide bombing in Istanbul that killed 10 German tourists earlier this month.
Biden and his family also visited the famous Blue Mosque and the Arasta Bazaar in Sultanahmet square.
The suicide attack happened near the monument called the German Fountain in Istanbul's historic Sultanahmet district.
Turkish authorities identified the bomber as a Syrian born in 1988, who had recently entered Turkey and was not among a list of potential bombers wanted by Turkey.
Biden is in Istanbul for a two-day visit, during which he is scheduled to meet with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu for talks expected to focus on the war against the Islamic State group.
