Solana sees "sinister agenda" behind Beirut blast

BRUSSELS - EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security policy, Javier Solana, condemned Friday morning's car bomb attack in Beirut which killed at least five people.

"Yet again I express my utter condemnation at the continuing wave of bomb attacks in Beirut," said the EU foreign policy chief in a statement.

It is clear , he noted, that the "main intention behind these attacks is to foment instability." "As attempts to foster dialogue continue in good faith, others exert efforts to pursue a sinister agenda," said Solana.

He added that we must continue to support those who genuinely seek peace and to "denounce the perpetrators of these heinous acts." Agencies
