Lithuania condemns terrorist attack in Jerusalem synagogue

“We would like to convey our deepest condolences to the families and friends of the victims, as well as all people of Israel,” the ministry said in a letter on Tuesday afternoon.

The Lithuanian ministry also urged all parties to refrain from any actions that would instigate violence and put off peace.

“It is crucial to prevent possible spread of disturbances. We urge to resume the talks without delay on the decision of the two countries and refrain from unilateral actions that would escalate tensions or impede resumption of negotiations,” said the minister.
