The Acting Prime Minister, Jim Anderton, sent this message to President George W Bush at 4 am New Zealand time.
"Mr President
We have heard with disbelief and shock of the events in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania over the last few hours.
The people of New Zealand will share your, and the international community's, sense of outrage and pain, especially for the loss of so many innocent lives.
Our thoughts are with you and with the American people."
