On this solemn anniversary of September 11, we extend our deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathies to the Government and people of the United States, especially to the families of those who lost their lives on that tragic day.
The people of Iraq understand deeply the suffering caused by terrorism and the lasting wounds it leaves upon families and nations. We remember with profound respect the innocent lives lost, and honor the courage and sacrifice of the first responders.
On this day of remembrance, Iraq stands in solidarity with the United States and with all those who continue to carry the memory and sorrow of September 11.
