Statement by the NATO Secretary General on the Taliban attack in
Kabul
On behalf of NATO, I condemn in the strongest terms the Taliban
attack in Kabul this morning.
The Taliban has demonstrated once again that they will use the most
extreme violence to oppose Afghanistan's freedom and democratic development.
I am very pleased that President Karzai has escaped unhurt and I
express my condoleances to the families of any who have lost their lives and my
deep sympathies to those who have been injured, possibly including some Members
of Parliament.
NATO will continue to support the
Afghan Government and people in defending their security and their democracy.
