"I am not going to be remarking on it. I appreciate this, and perhaps we will come back to you with another subject. I will say nothing more on that situation. The President and the Secretary have said things, as have the Deputy Secretary; they have made their positions clear. I will not continue with something of that manner," Ms Bruce said.

She said that the US prays for those who lost their lives in the terror attack and for the recovery of the injured.
