Excellency,

I was deeply saddened on hearing the news about the tragic loss of so many young lives caused by the fire at a nightclub in Santa Maria in the state of Rio Grande do Soul last Sunday.

On behalf of myself and the people of Norway, I extend to you Mrs. President, and to the affected families and to the people of Brazil, my sincere condolences and my sympathy at this difficult time.

Harald R
