		</div><p>Victims of terror attacks are a symbol of the constant need to guard freedom and the rule of law against threats, King Felipe VI of Spain has said at a ceremony marking the 20th anniversary of one of Europe’s deadliest extremist attacks.</p>
<p>“Remembering, just like justice and truth, is a commitment that cities make to terror victims, to restore and protect their dignity,” Felipe told officials attending the European Remembrance Day for Victims of Terrorism.</p>
<p>The annual event was held this year in Madrid.</p>
<p>March 11 was chosen as a day of continent-wide commemoration of terrorism victims after the commuter train bombings in the Spanish capital, which were carried out by Islamic extremists on March 11th, 2004, and killed 193 people.</p>
<p>Spanish prime minister Pedro Sanchez, senior European officials, and survivors and family members of victims from several European countries were present.</p>
<p>“You paid the price for the hate aimed at our values, our societies, our democracies,” European home affairs commissioner Ylva Johansson told the survivors. “You are not alone.”</p>
<p>Mr Sanchez compared memories of the Madrid attacks with others in New York, London and Paris.</p>
<p>“Whoever witnessed that extreme demonstration of violence (in Madrid) can never forget it,” he said.</p>
