The United States condemns the heinous
murder of Japanese citizen and journalist Kenji Goto by the terrorist
group ISIL. Through his reporting, Mr. Goto courageously sought to
convey the plight of the Syrian people to the outside world. Our
thoughts are with Mr. Goto’s family and loved ones, and we stand today
in solidarity with Prime Minister Abe and the Japanese people in
denouncing this barbaric act. We applaud Japan’s steadfast commitment to advancing peace and prosperity in the Middle East and globally, including its generous assistance for innocent people affected by the conflicts in the region. Standing together with a broad coalition of allies and partners, the United States will continue taking decisive action to degrade and ultimately destroy ISIL.
