UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson: "Disgraceful scenes in U.S. Congress. The United States stands for democracy around the world and it is now vital that there should be a peaceful and orderly transfer of power," UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson said in a tweet.

Turkish Foreign Ministry: "We are following the domestic developments with concern that took place after the US Presidential elections and demonstrator's attempt to raid the Congress building today.

We recommend that our citizens in the USA stay away from crowded places and places where shows are held."

Icelandic Foreign Minister Gudlaugur Thor: "Shocking scenes in #WashingtonDC. Any attacks on #democratic institutions and undermining of rule of law should be condemned. Outcome of democratic elections must be respected."

Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg: "What we are now seeing from Washington is a completely unacceptable attack on democracy in the United States. President Trump is responsible for stopping this. Scary pictures, and amazing that this is the United States."

Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon: "The scenes from the Capitol are utterly horrifying. Solidarity with those in the United States on the side of democracy and the peaceful and constitutional transfer of power. Shame on those who have incited this attack on democracy."

Austrian Prime Minister Sebastian Kurz: "Shocked by the scenes in Washington, D.C. This is an unacceptable assault on democracy. A peaceful and orderly transfer of power must be ensured."

French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian: "Violence against the American institutions is a grave attack against democracy. I condemn it. The will and the vote of the American people must be respected."

President of the European Council Charles Michel: "The US Congress is a temple of democracy. To witness tonight's scenes in #WashingtonDC is a shock. We trust the US to ensure a peaceful transfer of power to Joe Biden."
