Foreign Minister Erkki Tuomioja´s statement regarding the explosion in Moscow

Press release 37/2004
6 February, 2004

Today’s terror act in Moscow which killed several dozens of people is condemnable. I would like to express my deepest condolences to the families and friends of those killed in the train explosion on the central Moscow metro and to all those to whom it has caused suffering.

Finland vehemently condemns terrorism and violence against citizens and hopes the perpetrators will be brought to justice to account for their actions.
