The Republic of Yemen has condemned burning a copy of Koran by an extremist in the Swedish capital of Stockholm in intentionally insult to feelings of Muslims.
In a release to the Ministry of Foreign and Expatriate Affairs on Sunday, the ministry expressed its strongest rejection of insulting religious foundations of all and discarding any form of hatred and extremism.
The ministry warned of repercussions of this incident, which provokes aggression, creates splits in societies and harms principles of freedom and its humanitarian teachings and freedom of belief as a basic human right.
