We, European Leaders, are shocked and saddened by the terrorist attacks in France.

We condemn in the strongest possible terms these attacks which represent attacks on our shared values.

We stand united and firm in our solidarity with France, with the French people and the Government of France – in our common and continued fight against terrorism and violent extremism.

We call on Leaders around the world to work towards dialogue and understanding among communities and religions rather than division.

Turkey “strongly condemns” church attack

The Turkish Foreign Ministry “strongly condemns” the attack in the church in the French city of Nice. Turkey offered their “condolences to the relatives of those who lost their lives”, a statement said.

“There is no reason that can justify killing a person or justify violence. It is clear that those who organized such a brutal attack in a holy place of worship do not have any religious, humanitarian and moral values,” the statement said.

The nation “shares their pain,” Castex said.

French President Emmanuel Macron has arrived at Notre Dame de Nice. Macron has been accompanied by the Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin, Justice Minister Eric Dupond-Moretti, anti-terror prosecutor Jean-François Ricard and Mgr Éric de Moulins-Beaufort, President of the French Bishops’ Council (CEF), the president’s office said.

Terror Attack in France

France ‘will not give into terrorism’ says Macron.

J'appelle à l'unité de tous.
