    Protests erupt in Sweden against burning of muslims' holy book

    Protests erupt in Sweden against burning of muslims' holy book

    Protests against the burning of the Quran organised by Muslim organisations took place in two Swedish cities. Two mass protests against the burning of the Quran occurred in Sweden.

    Approximately four thousand people gathered in the centre of Stockholm near a mosque, where on June 28th, an immigrant from Iraq tore out several pages from the sacred book of Muslims and set it on fire. Over three thousand people staged a demonstration in the southern city of Malmö under the slogan "With the Quran Against Islamophobia." The protests were organised by local Muslim organisations.

    The Swedish authorities previously condemned the actions of the Iraqi individual, emphasising that they in no way reflect the views of the country's government.

    The Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs referred to the burning of the Quran as an act of disrespect and clear provocation.

    "Manifestations of racism, xenophobia, and the intolerance associated with them have no place in Sweden or Europe," noted the ministry, adding that Sweden has a constitutionally protected right to freedom of assembly, expression of views, and demonstrations.

    The 37-year-old refugee did not explain the reasons behind his decision to burn the Quran, only stating that he had been planning to do so for a long time. His action sparked a wave of protests in Muslim countries.

    In January 2023, an ultranationalist politician and leader of the Danish anti-Islamist party, Stram Kurs ("Hard Line"), Rasmus Paludan, burned the Quran outside the Turkish embassy.
