Press Release: (2009) 154
Statement by the Secretary General on Kabul attacks
On behalf of NATO, I strongly condemn the attacks that took
place in Kabul today, in which a number of international and
Afghan UN staff were killed and injured.
The victims of these terrorist attacks were devoted to
helping the Afghan people build better lives. In targeting
them, the Taliban has demonstrated once again that it is
truly an enemy of the Afghan people.
I express my condolences to the families of the victims, and
to the United Nations.
