Jordan denounces caricatures disparaging Prophet Muhammad
AMMONNEWS - Jordan Monday reiterated its condemnation of the republication of caricatures offensive to Prophet Muhammad that harm the feelings of almost 2 billion Muslims in the world.
Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Ayman Safadi conveyed to France Ambassador in Amman Veronique Folland the Kingdom's unease over the insulting caricatures that attempt at disparaging religious symbols, and feed the culture of 'hate, violence, extremism and terrorism,' which the Kingdom condemn.
Safadi highlighted that The European Court of Human Rights ruled in 2018 that insulting Prophet Muhammad does not constitute freedom of speech.
He underlined that Jordan was and will remain an ardent supporter of peace and respect of others, and their religious views and symbols, adding that the Kingdom stands firm against extremism and terrorism.
Safadi informed Folland of the importance of expediting the investigation into a case in which two Jordanians had been assaulted in France, calling for bringing the suspects into custody as soon as possible.
He highlighted the importance of pooling effort to combat the culture of extremism and discrimination, pointing out that the Kingdom's policies that are aimed at promoting the culture of respect for others will continue as it will keep advancing its initiatives that are aimed at promoting dialogue and cooperation.
Islam is a religion of love and peace that respects the others and guarantees the freedom of belief and worship, and the respect for prophets and religious beliefs. It condemns all sorts of violence and terrorism that some indulge in in clear contrast to the message of Islam, he added.
