“We unequivocally condemn the terrorist action that took place yesterday in the Canadian capital, Ottawa. We express our undivided support for the victims’ loved ones, for our friends the Canadian people and for the Canadian authorities.
Greece condemns every act of violence, especially when such an act stems from the intolerant motives of extremists, who are deceiving themselves if they believe that in this way they can impose their irrationality on democratic societies with a tradition of multicultural coexistence, respect for religious freedoms, and tolerance.”
