The Italian government on Monday
expressed its firm condemnation of Sunday's terrorist attack in
Mogadishu and expressed closeness and condolences to people and
government of Somalia.
"Our thoughts go to the families of the victims with the hope
that the injured recover," Foreign Minister Angelino Alfano said

"Italy will not fail to provide its support to Somalia,
including within the framework of the United Nations and the
European Union, continuing an active policy against terrorism to
benefit peace and the development of the country.
"We trust that the federal government and the federal member
states will be able to join forces to overcome this tragedy and
build a long-awaited future of peace and prosperity for the
country".
