Message of condolences from the President of the Republic addressed to the President of the Republic of India, Pratibha Patil, with respect to the attacks perpetrated in Jaipur

Madam President,

I was deeply concerned with the news of the tragic and cowardly attacks perpetrated yesterday, in Jaipur, against defenceless people, which deserve our fullest decrial and rejection.

In this moment of grief and suffering I wish to signify to Your Excellency and to the families of the victims of these attacks, on behalf of the people of Portugal and in my own personal name, our feelings of deep regret and solidarity.

Aníbal Cavaco Silva
