Ammon News - Jordan on Saturday denounced the burning of a copy of the Holy Quran by extremists in the Danish capital Copenhagen on Friday, describing it as an "act of hatred and a manifestation of Islamophobia and inciting violence and disrespecting religions."

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates in a statement stressed its rejection and denunciation of these irresponsible actions and behaviors that provoke Muslims' feelings, fuel hatred, and threaten peaceful coexistence.

The recurrence of such racist acts and behaviors obligates the international community to mobilize efforts to address and ban them, pass laws that criminalize and prevent insulting religious symbols and sanctities, work to spread a culture of peace and acceptance of the other, raise awareness of the values of common respect, enrich the values of harmony and tolerance, and reject extremism, fanaticism and incitement to hatred, the ministry added.
