STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT

Laura and I are deeply saddened that at least two Americans were killed and
others injured in Wednesday's horrific attack in Mumbai. We also mourn the
great loss of life suffered by so many people from several other countries,
and we have the wounded in our thoughts and prayers.

My Administration has been working with the Indian government and the
international community as Indian authorities work to ensure the safety of
those still under threat. We will continue to cooperate against these
extremists who offer nothing but violence and hopelessness.
