He condemned terrorism and urged for international cooperation to fight against extremist violence. Meanwhile, in Chicago, the National India Hub in Schaumburg held a gathering with many Indian associations present. Indian Consul General Somnath Ghosh spoke about unity, remembrance, and determination.
The somber atmosphere continued in New York, where community members held a prayer meeting at St. Mary’s Orthodox Church in Jackson Heights, paying tribute to the victims. Similar expressions of solidarity took place globally; in Madrid, Spain, members of the Indian diaspora gathered at Plaza de Callao for a peaceful protest. In Toronto, Canada, individuals paid their respects outside the Consulate General of India, and in Sweden, Indian expatriates observed a moment of silence to honor the victims.
