Britain stands in solidarity with the Japanese people:David Cameron

London: United Kingdom, Prime minister David Cameron has said that the reported brutal murder of Haruna Yukawa and the further threats made by ISIL are yet another reminder of the murderous barbarity of these terrorists.

He said that my thoughts and prayers are with Mr Yukawa’s family.

Prime minister David Cameron said that Britain stands in solidarity with the Japanese people at this difficult time and we will continue to offer the Japanese government all possible assistance.

Japan is right to refuse to bow to terrorism. Britain strongly supports the firm stance Prime Minister Abe and his government have taken and we will continue to work with Japan and other partners around the world to promote peace and to build a safer, more secure future for our citizens.
