ISLAMABAD: President Asif Ali Zardari on Friday strongly condemned the bomb explosion at the headquarters of the Norwegian government in Oslo.

The president in a message expressed his grief and shock over the loss of lives in the attack and conveyed his condolences to the people and the government of Norway.

He said Pakistan as a front-line state in the fight against terrorism was combating militancy.

Pakistan condemns and abhors all forms of terrorism and militancy, he added.

Zardari said Pakistan, which has suffered the most in the fight against terrorism and militancy, will continue to fight this menace with full resolve.
