The US ambassador to Hungary has said the September 11th terrorist attack has become a day to “renew our resolve to keep our people safe and be vigilant against the threat of terrorism".
David B. Cornstein made the statement during a video address released by the American embassy on Monday.
In his speech, published on the US embassy’s Facebook page, the ambassador remembered “the outpouring support from our friends around the world including our NATO-ally Hungary, who offered solidarity during that difficult time.”
Ambassador Cornstein commemorated the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks in New York on September 11th, 2011, including four of his personal friends.
