AGENCY/ TV, Berlin
Leaders from around the world expressed shock and anger over the deadly explosion blasts in the heart of London yesterday and determination to crush the terrorist threat.
The Group of Eight most industrialised nations declared the "barbaric" London bombings to be

attacks on the civilised world and said they would stand together to defeat deadly extremism.
"We condemn utterly these barbaric attacks," the G8 said in a statement read by the visibly shaken summit host, British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
"We are united in our resolve to confront and defeat this terrorism. This is not an attack on one nation, but on all nations and on civilised people everywhere," Blair said, flanked by the leaders of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the United States and five emerging nations.
As condolences poured in from around the globe, Nato Secretary General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer condemned the "appalling attacks" and said the alliance would not waver in its fight against militants.
The European Union called the blasts an "attack on democracy" and the "fundamental freedoms" that are at the heart of the 25-nation bloc.
"This is an attack on the people of Britain, it is an attack on democracy, and it is an attack on the fundamental freedoms which go to the heart of the European Union," EU commission head Jose Manuel Barroso said in a statement at a G8 summit.
French President Jacques Chirac told Blair of his horror at the outrage and expressed France's solidarity, his spokesman said.
"The president told the British prime minister that the tragic events in London fill him with horror, and expressed his grief and condolence," spokesman Jerome Bonnafont said.
French PM Dominque de Villepin added: "More than ever, democracies must rally together and show unity in the face of the terrorist threat. More than ever, we must show vigilance and determination."
French members of parliament suspended work in solidarity with the
victims.
The Queen said she was "deeply shocked" by the explosions.
US President George W Bush, at the G8 summit in Gleneages, said he was "impressed" with the resolve of all the leaders to fight terrorism.
Pope Benedict XVI condemned the attacks as "inhuman and antiChristian," in a telegram to the Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Cormac Murphy O'Connor.
He added he learned of the attacks "with pain" and wanted to assure the victims and their families that he was spiritually close to them.
The Spanish government issued a statement strongly condemning the "savage attacks" that rocked London and expressed its solidarity with the British people.
The US had no plans to up their own state of terror alert, the White House said.
But officials in Washington confirmed bomb-sniffing dogs and armed police officers were now patrolling the city's subways and buses.
The Australian Foreign Affairs office immediately set up a helpline for families who have relatives in the UK while Israeli ambassador to London, Zvi Hefetz, said that the embassy was in a state of emergency following the explosions.
Meanwhile London mayor Ken Livingstone said there was nothing terrorists could do to destroy the city's principles of freedom and harmony.
"Nothing you do, no matter how many of us you kill, will stop that flight to our cities where freedom is strong and where people can live in harmony with one another," Livingstone told reporters in Singapore, where the Olympic announcement was made Wednesday. (AFP/SKY)
