It stressed significance of integrating all international efforts in shouldering the collective responsibility of promoting awareness of joint values, banning harm to religions and divines and exerting more efforts to stop inciting acts, which harm the stability, security and safety of societies.

The ministry renewed its call for rejecting extremism and spread values of human brotherhood, enhancing peace values across the world and respecting human rights.
