Leiðtogar bregðast við: „Óásættanleg aðför að lýðræðinu“

Disgraceful scenes in U.S. Congress. The United States stands for democracy around the world and it is now vital that there should be a peaceful and orderly transfer of power.

Horrendous scenes from the US.

These are not ‘protestors’ - this a direct attack on democracy and legislators carrying out the will of the American people.

The scenes from the Capitol are utterly horrifying. Solidarity with those in 🇺🇸 on the side of democracy and the peaceful and constitutional transfer of power. Shame on those who have incited this attack on democracy.

Shocking scenes in Washington, D.C. The outcome of this democratic election must be respected.

— Jens Stoltenberg (@jensstoltenberg) January 6, 2021

Unbelievable scenes from Washington D.C. This is a totally unacceptable attack on democracy. A heavy responsibility now rests on President Trump to put a stop to this.

Statsminister Mette Frederiksen udtaler: “Ekstremisme, vold, polarisering og kaos er aldrig vejen frem. Forfærdende billeder fra Washington. Må demokratiet bringes til at virke igen”.

Deeply worrying developments in Washington, D.C. This is an assault on democracy. President Trump and several members of Congress bear substantial responsibility for developments. The democratic election process must be respected.

An attack on Capitol Hill is an attack on democracy. We are witnessing disturbing scenes of violence in Washington DC. Liberty, democracy and decency must be respected.

Canadians are deeply disturbed and saddened by the attack on democracy in the United States, our closest ally and neighbour. Violence will never succeed in overruling the will of the people. Democracy in the US must be upheld - and it will be.

— Justin Trudeau (@JustinTrudeau) January 6, 2021

Very distressing scenes at the US Congress. We condemn these acts of violence and look forward to a peaceful transfer of Government to the newly elected administration in the great American democratic tradition.

I am following with concern the news that are coming from Capitol Hill in Washington. I trust in the strength of America's democracy.
The new Presidency of @JoeBiden will overcome this time of tension, uniting the American people.

— Pedro Sánchez (@sanchezcastejon) January 6, 2021

I believe in the strength of US institutions and democracy. Peaceful transition of power is at the core. @JoeBiden won the election.

I look forward to working with him as the next President of the USA. https://t.co/2G1sUeRH4U

The US Congress is a temple of democracy.

To witness tonight’s scenes in #WashingtonDC is a shock.

We trust the US to ensure a peaceful transfer of power to @JoeBiden

— Charles Michel (@eucopresident) January 6, 2021

The violent acts against American institutions are a grave attack against democracy. I condemn them. The American people's will and vote must be respected

— Jean-Yves Le Drian (@JY_LeDrian) January 6, 2021

Die Feinde der Demokratie werden sich über diese unfassbaren Bilder aus #WashingtonDC freuen. Aus aufrührerischen Worten werden gewaltsame Taten - auf den Stufen des Reichstages, und jetzt im #Capitol. Die Verachtung demokratischer Institutionen hat verheerende Auswirkungen. (1)
