In a recent press conference, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kan'ani called on European governments to take decisive measures to prevent any recurrence of Qur'an desecrations within the region.
Kan'ani strongly condemned the recent acts of heinous Qur'an desecration in Europe, emphasizing that insulting divine religions is utterly unacceptable and without justification.
During the press conference, Kan'ani held a copy of the holy Qur'an, expressing his dismay at the shocking acts of desecration. He urged European countries where such incidents have occurred to promptly take action against the offenders or hand them over to Islamic nations.
The incidents of Qur'an desecration have ignited widespread outrage and condemnation throughout the Islamic world. Among the troubling events, members of the Islamophobic and far-right nationalist group "Danske Patrioter (Danish Patriots)" were seen burning a copy of the Holy Qur'an in front of Iraq's Embassy in Copenhagen, Denmark. Another distressing incident involved a 37-year-old Iraqi refugee in Sweden, who was reported to have stomped and kicked the Holy Qur'an. Moreover, a far-right Danish leader previously burned a copy of the Qur'an in front of the Turkish Embassy in Stockholm earlier this year, sparking a global outcry.
In response to these offensive acts, Iranian authorities are urging European governments to take firm actions against the perpetrators and implement measures to prevent any future occurrences of such despicable acts. They emphasize the importance of respecting religious beliefs and ensuring that such acts of desecration are not repeated in the future. (ILKHA)
