BRUSSELS, Dec 21 (KUNA) -- EU High Representative for the Common Foreign
and Security Policy, Javier Solana, said Friday that he is "appalled at the
suicide bombing in a mosque in Sherpao, Pakistan".
"I condemn in the strongest possible terms this attack that killed dozens
of civilians and left dozens injured during a religious service," said Solana
in a statement.
"Pakistan is currently going through a delicate period in its history. The
lifting of the emergency rule, the restoration of the Constitution and the
holding of general elections on 8 January are welcome steps in the country's
return to the path of democracy. Nothing should undermine this trend," added
the statement. (end)
