Cairo, April 18, 2022, SPA – Egypt has strongly denounced the act of a group of extremists in Sweden who deliberately abused the Holy Quran, which led to fuelling the feelings of Muslims around the world in the holy month of Ramadan. The Egyptian Foreign Ministry, in a statement today, stressed its rejection to tamper with religious beliefs whatever they are and the utilization of provocative practices that contradict with all human values and principles. It also called for adopting commonalities of tolerance, accepting others and peaceful coexistence among peoples, discarding calls for incitement and hate, and refraining from acts of violence, sabotage and provocation that might harm the stability, security and safety of societies. --SPA 16:52 LOCAL TIME 13:52 GMT 0022 www.spa.gov.sa/w1722553
