"Mr President, this barbaric act was a shameless attack on an ancient centre of Christianity. Naturally I wish to express my sincere condolences to all those affected. This was not just an attack on a Coptic Christian community but on all Egyptians. I am encouraged how Egyptian society, which is of course made up of many different faiths, has widely condemned this atrocity, and moved swiftly to show their support for Egypt’s Coptic Christians. The presidential decision to give the victims state funerals and the announcement of three days’ national mourning must be acknowledged as a noble act of inclusiveness. However, this tragedy again highlights the precarious position facing Christian communities across the Middle East and North Africa. Governments have a duty to protect their minorities, and we must do more to support those Christians fleeing persecution from Islamic fundamentalists."@en1
