Sweden can't hide Islamophobia behind freedom of speech mask

TEHRAN, Jan. 24 (MNA) – Condemning Sweden's desecration of the Holy Quran, the Iranian Parliament Speaker said that Swedish politicians can not hide the designed Islamophobia behind the false mask of freedom of speech.

Addressing parliament's open session on Tuesday, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said, "First of all, we strongly condemn the shameless desecration of the Holy Quran in Sweden."

"Such moves against religious sanctities have hurt the feelings of Muslims and monotheists all over the world," Ghalibaf said.

Swedish politicians cannot hide this obvious and designed Islamophobia behind the false mask of freedom of speech, he added.

Swedish right-wing leader Rasmus Paludan received permission from his country's government to burn the Holy Quran in front of the Turkish embassy in Stockholm. He was protected by the police while committing the act.
