Edmond Farhat, signed by the Secretary of State, Cardinal Angelo Sodano, Pope Benedict XVI assures his own "personal solidarity with the numerous people who were seriously injured in this attack, to their families, the authorities and the Turkish people." He also called for the "Mercy of God on those people who died and his comfort for their families." (AGI) - 181423 LUG 05
