President: Deeply shocked by shooting of former US President Trump; Political violence is deplorable

Deeply shocked by the shooting of the former US President Trump. Political violence is deplorable and should have no place in a democracy, the Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili wrote on the social network.

“Deeply shocked by the shooting of the former US President Trump. Political violence is deplorable and should have no place in a democracy. I wish President Trump and all those injured a speedy recovery and send my condolences to the family of the one fatally shot during this attack,” the President stated.

The incident involving Donald Trump occurred during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania, where the former president was shot in the ear. While his life is not in danger, one rally participant was killed, and two others are in grave condition. The FBI has labeled the event as an “assassination attempt” on Trump. The gunman, identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, was killed by Secret Service agents at the scene.
