    The UAE strongly condemned the burning of a copy of the Quran by extremists in Denmark, calling on the Copenhagen government to take responsibility and put an end to these offensive acts.
     
     
    The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed the importance of monitoring hate speech, which negatively affects the achievement of peace and security, stressing the UAE's refusal to use freedom of expression as a justification for such heinous acts.
    The Ministry confirmed the UAE's permanent rejection of all practices aimed at undermining security and stability, and inconsistent with human and moral values and principles, noting that hate speech and extremism contradict international efforts seeking to spread the values of tolerance, coexistence and peace among peoples.
    The Ministry stressed the importance of respecting religious symbols and sanctities and avoiding incitement and polarization, at a time when the world needs to work together to support the global principles of tolerance and peaceful coexistence, which should be supported and implemented to achieve stability and sustainable development.
