The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of this nation said in a statement that this act is an intended insult to the feelings of all Muslims.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs warned of the repercussions of the incident, noting that it creates divisions in societies and harms the principles of religious freedom.
He stressed our position in defending dialogue, tolerance and coexistence.
The ministry renewed its call to renounce extremism and spread the values of brotherhood among peoples.
During a protest in Stockholm last week against Turkey, Rasmus Paludan, leader of the Danish far-right political party Hard Line, burned a copy of the Quran in front of the Ankara embassy.
The incident caused a wave of disapproval in different latitudes, especially in Muslim countries.
In this regard, the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, denounced this fact, considering that “freedom of expression should not be an excuse for extremists to ignite the fire of hatred between followers of different religions.”
The Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the Gulf Cooperation Council and the Muslim World League also condemned the desecration.
