The Alliance for Shared Values deplores the bombing attacks perpetrated against peaceful protesters today in Ankara.

It is now more important than ever that we do not fall prey to the pernicious intentions behind these attacks. We must stand in unity and not lose our belief and trust in peace. At this moment, we reiterate our condemnation of any and all forms of violence and terror.
