Rossin on Tuesday relayed a letter of thanks from New York Mayor
forwarded to everyone who showed solidarity with America following
the attack on September 11. Rossin added his own personal gratitude
to Croatia for the sympathies expressed. #L#
I am proud that I am able to relay a letter from the Mayor of New York,
Michael R. Bloomberg, in which he expresses the gratitude of New
Yorkers for the solidarity shown throughout the world and the
support they received following the September 11 attack, a message
signed by the ambassador to the press said.
The ambassador recalled the strong support by the Croatian people
to Americans following September 11.
I believe that Croats in particular empathised with the American
people who were deeply shocked by the senseless violence due to the
losses they themselves suffered in the war, Rossin wrote.
The US Ambassador reminded that the Croatian government
immediately and harshly condemned terrorism following the attack
and remained steadfast in its support to the anti-terrorist
coalition.
