The Government today condoled with the government and people of Norway at the bloody bombing and shooting in that country on Friday which left as many as 90 dead.
"It is sad to see Norway experiencing this kind of terrorism, specially, since the Norwegians are a peace loving people and our hearts go out to them in this moment of sorrow," Acting Minister of External Affairs Neomal Perera said.
He added that there is no other country which would understand the pain and the suffering of the Norway people at this devastating time, than Sri Lanka, which too had suffered the same pain and sorrow so profoundly during the last three decades at the hands of the most brutal terrorism outfit in the world.
"Sri Lanka reminds world leaders and the entire international community that they have a moral responsibility and an undeniable stake to work towards curbing terrorism which is a menace, destroying valuable lives and also leaving developing countries paralysed.
We remain ready to support the Norwegian government by urging all the world leaders to help that country at this time of need and bring the perpetrators of this violence to justice.
Our prayers are with those affected by this dastardly act," Mr. Perera said in a statement.
