Qatar Strongly Condemns Quran Burning in Netherlands

A far-left politician in the Netherlands has once again sparked outrage by tearing up copies of the Quran outside the embassies of several Muslim countries in The Hague. Qatar has strongly condemned this act of desecration.

The Qatari government has accused the perpetrator of the Quran desecration in the Netherlands of deliberately attempting to incite unrest and provoke Muslims. This act has drawn condemnation from around the world.

“The State of Qatar strongly condemns the tearing of copies of the Holy Quran in front of a number of countries’ embassies in the Dutch city of The Hague, considering this vile incident as a planned act of incitement and a serious provocation intended to stir up public opinion and inflame the feelings of Muslims,” the Gulf country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on Monday.

The Ministry further cautioned that permitting the desecration of the Holy Quran under the guise of freedom of expression not only fosters hatred and violence but also jeopardises the prospects of peaceful coexistence.
