Terrorism is absolutely incompatible with the principles of morality and humanity, the Russian Foreign Ministry's statement in connection with the tragedy in Beslan says. The Russian Foreign Ministry speaks for the elimination of terrorism having united efforts of all countries.
"It is the moment of truth. The policy of double standards is inadmissible. It is a blasphemy to divide terrorists into good and bad," the statement reads.
"Terrorists, their inspirers and sponsors either direct or circumstantial must bear full responsibility," the statement runs.
Moscow is grateful to heads of states and governments and to all people, who expressed their solidarity and support in the dark hours and to all who joined the voice of the UN Security Council, OSCE, EU, Organization of the Islamic Conference and NATO, which condemned the recent terrorist attack, the statement reads.
"We witnessed the cruel tragedy, new unprecedented form of "terrorism infinity", when the victims of the terrorists were innocent women, children and unprotected babies," the document says.
"The losses are grave and irreplaceable. The terrorists were shooting hostages point blank and ruthlessly exploding everyone around," the Ministry noted.
The Russian Foreign Ministry calls to learn the lessons from the recent tragedy. Moscow believes that "this crime once again proves that terrorists are animals and nothing is sacred for them."
"In order to achieve their criminal tasks they challenge the basics of the civilization," the statement underlines.
Russia will continue to decisively and stoically fight against the international terrorism and will also be among the front rows of those, whose top priority is the protection of human's right and freedoms as well as the right for life. The international solidarity with Russia must become a powerful and consolidating force in the decisive and stoic fight against the international terrorism, the statement reads.
