[01] FM Bakoyannis' message on Sept. 11 anniversary
Greek Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyannis said Monday that the
international community should intensify its efforts to handle the
problem of terrorism which "has no ideology, religion or cultural
references," in a message on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of
the September 11 terrorist attacks in New York.
"Today's fifth anniversary since the tragic events of that day, brings
back to our memory images of destruction, death and pain. It was a
result of a cowardly and inhumane blind violence, against any logic and
contrary to every principle and human value," Bakoyannis said in her
message.
"The International Community should continue and intensify its
coordinated efforts for a radical handling of this modern scourge,
which has no ideology, religion or cultural references. Our effort must
be multifaceted. It concerns the prevention, that is, dealing with the
reasons of this phenomenon, as well as the response, in arresting and
punishing of terrorists, always within the framework of the principles
of the rule of law and the respect of human rights," Bakoyannis
concluded.
