As Nauert noted, the US supports its allies in the fight against terrorism.

"We are ready to assist the Dutch authorities in their investigation as necessary. We thank the Dutch police and medical personnel for their effective and courageous efforts to apprehend the attacker and care for our citizens, "the diplomat said in a statement.

On August 31, police opened fire on an attacker who attacked a people with a knife in Amsterdam.

As a result of the incident, two Americans were injured. As the Amsterdam authorities said, the attacker had a "terrorist motive".
