I strongly condemn the horrific terrorist attacks on
a synagogue & an Orthodox church in Makhachkala & Derbentand in Dagestan, Russian Federation, killing a Russian Orthodox priest & 15 from the police. These barbaric attacks are utterly rejected & unjustifiable. #forSafeWorship

[Miguel Ángel Moratinos @MiguelMoratinos]

Places of worship must be respected ans worshippers must be able to observe & manifest their Faith without fear. (2/2)

I am appalled at the antisemitic attack at a synagogue in Rouen, France today. Setting the synagogue on fire has caused significant damage inside the synagogue. I strongly condemn this vile act as well as antisemitic manifestations in France in past days. (1/2)

UNAOC spiritual journey #AbuDhabi:the spectacular Sheikh Zayed #GrandMosque & The @Abrahamicfh 3 Houses of Worship -Ahmed El-Tayeb Mosque, St.Francis Church, & Moses Ben Maimon Synagogue –deepen our understanding of the universality of religious sites & our common humanity ⁦

[Miguel Ángel Moratinos @MiguelMoratinos]

I strongly condemn the cowardly attack on the Santa Maria Catholic Church in Istanbul during Sunday Mass. Places of worship should be respected. I wish to express my deepest condolences to the victims’ families & my support for the Christian community in Türkiye. #forSafeWorship

[Miguel Ángel Moratinos @MiguelMoratinos]

I recall the @UN Plan of Action to Safeguard Religious Sites which emphasizes the sanctity and universality of religious sites as symbols of our identity and shared humanity. Denying historical roots and cultural diversity can sow divisions and fuel hatred in societies. (3/3)

[Miguel Ángel Moratinos @MiguelMoratinos]

The universality of religious sites also reminds us that the most effective antidote to the issues that divide us is constructive dialogue, compassion and tolerance based on mutual respect. (2/3)

[Miguel Ángel Moratinos @MiguelMoratinos]

I am aware that the recent inauguration of the Ram temple in India has been a source of consternation. I'm reminded of the universality of religious sites and places of worship, which are inspired by the best in humanity and ought not to be instrumentalized. (1/3) #forSafeWorship
