The following statement was issued today by the Spokesperson for UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon:
The Spanish people have endured over 40 years of violence at the hands of ETA. The Secretary-General shares in the hope that ETA is committed to bringing this tragic chapter for Spain to an end. There should be an end to violence and a permanent laying down of arms. The Secretary-General pays tribute to the memory of the over 800 victims of ETA violence over the years. They and all who have fallen victim to any form of terrorism around the world should not be forgotten.
