Dear colleagues, dear friends!

The Russian business community, united by the system of chambers of commerce and industry, received the news of the tragedy that occurred at Crocus City Hall with pain and indignation. We express our deepest condolences to the families and friends of the victims and wish a speedy recovery to the injured.

We strongly condemn this terrorist act, for which there is and cannot be any justification. Its culprits must be found and severely punished.

In this difficult hour, we remember that the business community is part of our multinational people and believe that the unity that has always been strong in Russia will help us overcome grief and pain.

President of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry Sergey Katyrin
