"Terrorism is a crime against humanity. An effective fight against terrorism is possible only by the help of international cooperation and solidarity," Erdogan said in his letter of condolence he sent to Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

 

"In this content, I strongly condemn these heinous terrorist attacks in Mumbai," he said, adding that Turkey is committed to enhancing cooperation with India in the fight against terror.

 

Erdogan last week paid a formal visit to India last week where he met with his Indian counterpart and offered Turkey’s support in joint cooperation to end terror.

 

"The attacks in Mumbai once again showed that terror has no religion, nationality and country," Gul said in the message he sent to Indian President Pratibha Patil.

 

"Turkey, as a country that wishes to strengthen relations with India in the fight against terror, share the pain of the friendly Indian people", the Turkish president added.
