Federal Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle has issued the following statement in response to the attack perpetrated in Azra in the Afghan province of Logar today (25 June):

This horrific act demonstrates a complete lack of respect for humanity. It targeted innocent people: the sick, women and children.”
