The attack carried out today by Al-Shabaab on an Hotel in Mogadishu, Somalia, is an act of terrorism by those who want to undermine progress towards a stable and secure Somalia. We stand by Somali authorities in fighting terrorism.
We express our condolences to the victims and the families of those who have lost their lives and wish for quick recovery to the wounded ones.
The EU will continue supporting the efforts of Somali Federal institutions aimed at establishing a secure and safe environment a prerequisite for moving forward in a positive direction that Somalia has embarked upon to recover from decades of conflict.
