“The shooting during the gala dinner of the Correspondents’ Association in the White House, in which President Donald Trump and the First Lady Melania Trump were special guests, is yet another sign that political tension in the USA is entering a dangerous phase.
I most categorically condemn this despicable act of political aggression against the President of the USA, Donald Trump.
When trust in the statehood of a leading global power is under attack, the consequences are not just domestic - they have global resonance.
Aggression has no place in our democracies.
Every act which jeopardizes the safety of the head of state and stability of institutions is inadmissible. Democracy is not upheld with chaos, but with order, rules and responsibility".
