Mr. President,
I was shocked and saddened on hearing the news about the tragic shooting attack at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida, in the early hours of Sunday morning, resulting in the loss of so many innocent lives.
On behalf of myself and the Norwegian people I extend my condolences and my sympathy to you, Mr. President, and ask you to convey my condolences and sympathy to the families of the victims, to those injured, and to the people of the United States of America at this difficult time.
