    Quran burned again near Iraqi embassy in Denmark

    On Monday, July 24, the Danish ultranationalist anti-Islamic group called "Danske Patrioter" or "Danish Patriots" conducted a demonstration in front of the Iraqi Embassy in Copenhagen, during which they burned the Quran, DW reports.

    One of the participants stomped on the Quran and set it on fire on a foil tray next to the Iraqi flag lying on the ground. When the news agency dpa requested confirmation from the Danish police about whether the burned book was indeed the Quran, the police could not officially confirm it.

    This incident marked the second Quran burning carried out by right-wing radicals in the Danish capital in recent days. On July 21, Copenhagen police reported that a "book" was burned near the Iraqi Embassy but did not specify that it was the Quran. The organizers of both actions were the same "Danish Patriots," who also livestreamed the event on social media.

    Subsequently, the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs acknowledged that the sacred book of Muslims, the Quran, was indeed burned and stated that the kingdom condemned the action.

    Earlier on June 28, Quran burning took place with police permission in the center of Stockholm, Sweden.

    The Quran burning actions sparked widespread protests in Islamic countries. On July 24, thousands of people took to the streets of the Yemeni capital, Sana'a, to demonstrate their protest.

    Following the Quran burning incident in Stockholm, protesters attacked the Swedish embassy in Baghdad and set it on fire. After the first action in Copenhagen, Danish refugee assistance institutions in the province of Basra were also targeted and attacked.

    Due to security concerns arising from the protests, Germany's Minister of Defense, Boris Pistorius, canceled a last-minute trip to Iraq.

    The Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned the repeated burning of the Quran in Copenhagen and emphasized that such actions contribute to the spread of extremism and hatred. It called on European Union officials to consider what they understand by freedom of expression and the right to protest.

    In response to the incident, the official spokesperson of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kanani Chafi, stated:

    "No country should use its laws to justify insulting sanctities and the sacred Quran."

    He also suggested that Islamic countries should demand the extradition of those who desecrated the sacred Muslim book for judicial proceedings.
