FM @larsloekke: “Have noted #OIC declaration. Will continue close dialogue with OIC and its member states on the basis of mutual respect. 🇩🇰 has condemned recent Quran burnings and is exploring possibility of intervening in special situations within Danish freedom of expression.”
🇩🇰 FM @larsloekke: “Denmark condemns today's burning of the Quran carried out by very few individuals. These provocative and shameful acts do not represent the views of the Danish government. Appeal to all to deescalate - violence must never be the response.”
The Danish government condemns the burning of the Quran. Burning of holy texts and other religious symbols is a shameful act that disrespects the religion of others.
