EU expresses solidarity with Turkey following Ankara blast by Kurds

European Commission expressed solidarity with EU hopeful Turkey Wednesday, a day after a powerful bomb blast in Ankara killed six people, AFP reported. "I strongly condemn this horrible and cowardly attack. I send my condolences to the families and friends of those who lost their life," EU Enlargement Commissioner Olli Rehn said in a statement. "The Commission expresses its solidarity with Turkey in its efforts to fight terrorism, which is a common concern for the EU and Turkey," said Rehn, who has been closely involved in Ankara's quest to join the European Union.
