RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Ministry on Friday summoned Denmark’s charge d’affaires to the Kingdom and handed her a protest note calling to stop these disgraceful acts, which violate all religious teachings, and international laws and norms.
The ministry expressed through a statement the Kingdom’s absolute rejection of these acts that feed interreligious hatred.
Saudi Arabia on Saturday expressed its “strong condemnation and dissatisfaction” with a failure to take necessary measures to prevent the recurrence of incidents of violations against Islamic sanctities.
The ministry said an “extremist group in Denmark burned a copy of the Holy Qur’an, and raised slogans of hatred and racism against Islam and Muslims, in front of the Embassy of the Republic of Iraq in the capital, Copenhagen.”
The incidents have prompted Middle Eastern nations to summon their Swedish and Danish diplomats in protest.
