Orban offers condolences to Austria over terrorist attack

Hungary stands by Austria with all its strength, and is ready to do everything it can to save Europe from a series of terrorist attacks, Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Tuesday, after terrorists had killed at least four in shootings in downtown Vienna on Monday. "We are shaken and upset" by news of the attack, Orban said in a video message on Facebook. Hungary fully supports Austrians, Orban said. "An attack against you is an attack against us, your pain is ours and your challenges are ours too," Orban said. "We shall pray for the victims and wish strength to their families," he added. Addressing Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz, Orban said: "Dear Sebastian, please know that we stand by you and will do all in our power to deter potential terrorists and to apprehend the perpetrators."
