Nepal on Wednesday condemned the terrorist attacks at different places in Brussels on Tuesday.  “The Government of Nepal is shocked to learn about the terrorist attacks at different places in Brussels yesterday that resulted in massive loss of precious lives and injuries to many innocent people,” the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a press release on Wednesday.  

Islamic State bombers on Tuesday killed around 35 people in a strike at the symbolic heart of the EU.

The Government of Nepal, in line with its principled position, unequivocally condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations and holds the view that terrorism must be firmly and resolutely dealt with wherever and whenever it takes place, added the MoFA release.

While wishing speedy recovery of those injured, the Government of Nepal extends heartfelt condolences and sympathies to the government and people of Belgium as well as to the bereaved families, said MoFA. “The government also believes that the perpetrators of these heinous acts will be brought to justice at the earliest.”
