Romania's Prime Minister Dacian Ciolos on Friday sent his British counterpart David Cameron a condolence message after the killing of Labour MP Jo Cox.

I am deeply saddened by the heinous attack committed not only on a young politician who had proactively assumed an opinion, but also on the values we know the British people share, promote and defend. I am convinced that such acts won't prevent, now or in the future, the British citizens from freely expressing and taking responsibility for their opinions, individually or collectively. I am extending my sincere condolences to the family and friends of Labour MP Jo Cox, Ciolos said in a message to the British prime minister.

British pro-EU MP Jo Cox, a member of the opposition's Labour Party, died Thursday aged 41 after being attacked in the street in Birstall - northern England, one week before the June 23 referendum on the opportunity of the United Kingdom's exiting the European Union.

Both sides in the referendum on a possible exit have suspended their campaigns after the attack.
