The Philippines strongly condemns the terrorist attacks that were carried out in France, Tunisia, and Kuwait, and took the lives of innocent people.

Extremism and terrorism have no place in a civilized society. They also run counter to the desire of people all around the world for peace, harmony and understanding, and to global efforts to promote development and prosperity.

The international community should not be cowed and deterred by such cowardly acts of terrorism, and instead steel its resolve to continue to fight terrorism in all its forms. END
