“The abhorrent murder of the British citizen Alan Henning by the executioners of the so-called ‘Islamic Caliphate’ is yet another irrational act of barbarity and another heinous crime perpetrated by this terrorist organization against innocent citizens and civilians.
We express our deep condolences to the victim’s family and to the citizens of Great Britain, and our solidarity with all of the populations and communities of the wider region that are suffering the ordeal of the unprecedented and base regime of the so-called ‘Islamic State’.
This new brutal crime of the jihadist extremists of the ‘Islamic Caliphate’ strengthens the resolve of the international community and of Greece to do whatever is necessary to bring the perpetrators to justice and obliterate the threat that the so-called ‘Islamic State’ poses to the peace and prosperity of the wider region.”
