Five people were killed and several others wounded in a terror attack near the Houses of Parliament in London yesterday.
In her reaction, UK Prime Minister Theresa May sounded a defiant note, hours after the attack on the Houses of Parliament, insisting that life will go on in London as normal.
"We will all move forward together," she told reporters in Downing Street. She offered her sympathies to the relatives of those who were killed, saying her "thoughts and prayers were with those who had waved their loved ones off, but will not now be welcoming them home" she said.
Donald Trump has spoken to Theresa May to offer Britain the full cooperation and support of the United States in responding to the Westminster attack.
Donald Trump offered his support and condolences to United Kingdom Prime Minister Theresa May on March 22 after a devastating attack outside Parliament left 5 people dead and another 40 injured.
