The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned the burning of a copy of the Holy Quran by extremists in the Danish capital Copenhagen yesterday, an incitement and racist act that provokes the feelings of Muslims, especially in the holy month of Ramadan.

The Ministry affirmed that burning the Holy Qur’an is an act of dangerous hate, and a manifestation of Islamophobia that incites violence and insulting religions, and cannot be considered a form of freedom of expression at all, stressing the need to stop such irresponsible behavior and actions that fuel violence and hatred, and threaten peaceful coexistence. .

The Ministry renews its call to the international community to assume its responsibilities by confronting these acts and not allowing them, to work to spread and promote a culture of peace and acceptance of the other, to raise awareness of the values ​​of common respect, to enrich the values ​​of harmony and tolerance, and to reject extremism, fanaticism and incitement to hatred, as it is a collective responsibility that everyone must abide by.
