The following statement was issued today by Press Secretary Josh Earnest.
The United
States condemns in the strongest possible terms today’s heinous
terrorist attack at Istanbul’s Ataturk International Airport in Turkey,
which appears to have killed and injured
dozens. Ataturk International Airport, like Brussels Airport which was
attacked earlier this year, is a symbol of international connections
and the ties that bind us together. Our deepest condolences go out to
the families and loved ones of those killed,
and we wish a speedy recovery to those injured. We remain steadfast in
our support for Turkey, our NATO Ally and partner, along with all of
our friends and allies around the world, as we continue to confront the
threat of terrorism.
