Kazakhstan strongly condemns deadly attack on Peshawar school

"Kazakhstan strongly condemns the act of terrorism committed in the Pakistani city of Peshawar on December 16, 2014, which resulted in the deaths of more than 140 civilians. We express our deep condolences to the government of Pakistan, the families and close ones of those who perished and wish speedy recovery to all injured during the terrorist attack. The killing of innocent children and teachers causes special indignation and revulsion and shows the utmost inhuman nature of terrorists. Kazakhstan condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, urges the international community to take collective efforts in decisive fight against this scourge and calls for the soonest adoption of a Universal Convention on the Fight Against International Terrorism," the statement reads.
