UAE strongly condemns terrorist attack in London
The UAE on Wednesday strongly condemned the terrorist attack, which took place outside the House of Parliament in the British capital, London.
Forty innocent people were injured and 5 killed, including the attacker and a policeman.
”The UAE stands in solidarity with the government and people of the friendly United Kingdom in confronting terrorism. It also rejects and denounces any criminal acts, regardless of any justifications,” said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation in a statement on Wednesday.
The ministry called on countries of the world to step up their efforts to counter and eradicate the terrorism menace, which threatens international security and stability.
The ministry reaffirmed the UAE’s unequivocal position of denouncing terrorism in all its forms and manifestations regardless of their motivations, justifications and sources, and stressed the need to uproot terrorism and dry up its sources of funding.
