UN Security Council condemns terrorist attacks in London
font size    

UN Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution on Thursday, condemning the terrorist attacks in London and expressing its utmost determination to combat terrorism.

The resolution, drawn up by Britain, expresses the council's sympathy with the victims of the four blasts that rocked London earlier Thursday.

It reaffirmed the need to combat by all means threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts, saying any act of terrorism is a threat to peace and security.

According to the resolution, the Security Council urges all states to cooperate actively in efforts to find and bring to justice the perpetrators, organizers and sponsors of these barbaric acts.

Meanwhile, in a presidential statement read out by president for the month, Adamantios Vassilakis of Greece, the Council expressed outrage and indignation at the appalling terrorist attacks.

"At this moment, it is important to send a strong message against those who have committed these unjustifiable crimes," Vassilakis said. "They have to know that the international community is determined more than ever to combat collectively the scourge of terrorism which constitutes a serious threat to international peace and security."

"Those responsible for these horrendous acts will be bought to justice and punished," he concluded.
