"At the very beginning of my words, on behalf of our country and nation, we extend our condolences to the Russian government for the terrorist attack carried out at a concert hall in Moscow yesterday. We strongly condemn this heinous terrorist attack targeting innocent civilians.
Terrorism is unacceptable regardless of where it comes from or who the perpetrator is. As a country that knows the bloody face of terrorism very well, we share the grief of the Russian people as a nation and a state.
