Australian Greens statement on Nice attack

2016-07-15

Our thoughts are with the people of France after another shocking act of violence towards their peaceful country.
On behalf of the Australian Greens I extend our sincere condolences to the victims, their loved ones, and all those who will be forever changed by what they experienced today.
This horrendous crime occurs at a time when the world is still reeling from the senseless acts of violence in Istanbul and Dallas. In the face of attacks like this we must strengthen our commitment to peaceful democracy, respect for diversity and building cohesion in our global community.
Senator Richard Di Natale, Leader of the Australian Greens
