Duda sends his condolences after Las Vegas shooting

President Andrzej Duda sent condolences to US President Donald Trump, following the mass shooting in Las Vegas, where at least 59 people were killed and over 500 injured. “On behalf of the Polish Nation and on my own behalf, I wish to offer into your hands, Sir, our deepest condolences,” Duda wrote in his letter. “The death of so many innocent people inspires in us a profound sense of grief but also meets with our resolute and unequivocal objection. In the face of this barbarous act of terror, we remain in solidarity with the American People, sharing the sentiments of pain and despair, offering our prayers together with the bereaved families, and wishing a quick recovery to all the wounded,” he added. The shooter, 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, started shooting from multiple assault rifles from his hotel room, opening fire on thousands of people attending the open-air music festival. So far, police have not determined Paddock’s motives, said there was no evidence so far that he had ties to any international terrorist organization.
