ANKARA (AA) – Türkiye on Saturday strongly condemned a “vile attack” on the Muslim holy book, the Quran, and a Turkish flag in Denmark.

Denouncing the late Friday incident as a “hate crime,” the Turkish Foreign Ministry said Ankara will never accept such “vile actions being allowed under the guise of freedom of expression.”

The ministry urged Danish authorities to take immediate action against the perpetrators, along with concrete measures to prevent further provocations that threaten social harmony and peaceful coexistence.​​​​​​​
