Dear Sirs:
On behalf of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress (EAJC), which unites Jewish organizations and communities in the CIS and Asian-Pacific states, we express our pain and anger in connection with the new wave of terrorist attacks in Istanbul.
The impact of international terrorism has been felt by the people in residential and business areas of the city and those affiliated with British and Israeli institutions in Turkey. We ask you to pass on our condolences to the families of the injured and deceased.
We express our solidarity with the Jewish community of Turkey, all Turkish people and the British and Israeli diplomats in Istanbul. We are sure that the appropriate services within the Turkish Republic and the support of the international community will help to repair the broken buildings in the city and the broken bodies and spirits of the people, and punish the initiators and executors of today's evil deeds.
Alexander Machkevich,
President, Euro-Asian Jewish Congress,
President, Jewish Congress of Kazakhstan

General Secretary, Euro-Asian Jewish Congress,
