President Prodi's statement on the attack in Nasiriya (Iraq)

Summary: November 12, 2003: Statement by President Prodi on the attack in Nasiriya (Brussels)


The news of the attack against the Carabinieri Command Centre in Nasiriya has profoundly saddened me. I wish to express my deep solidarity and my heartfelt sympathy to the families of the victims, to the Italian Government and to the Carabinieri Corps, whose sacrifices and extraordinary abnegation have contributed so much to creating the best conditions for maintaining peace and protecting the defenceless civilian population in exceptionally difficult circumstances, wherever they have been engaged throughout the world. I share deeply in the whole country's mourning.
