In a written statement issued on Monday, the Italian Foreign Ministry described the terrorist attack in Semdinli as a "bloodthirsty act".

The statement said that the Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini, on behalf of the Italian government, condemns the bloodthirsty terrorist attack of PKK in Semdinli last Friday that left 15 Turkish soldiers dead.

Any form of terrorism can not be accepted and violence can not be justified, told the Italian Foreign Ministry in its statement.
