President Raisi reiterated his government's will to expand relations with Muslim and friendly countries, and expressed hope that given the two sides' considerable capacities, Iran-Algeria relations will further expand in trade and economic fields.
President Tebboune, for his part, congratulated the Iranian government and nation on Eid al-Adha, and emphasized defending the Islamic identity and his country's interest in the expansion of relations in all areas.
In a court-authorized act of sacrilege against the Muslim holy book, two men stood outside Stockholm Central Mosque on Wednesday and burned a copy of the Quran. The move was made to coincide with the Muslim festivity of Eid al-Adha (Feast of Sacrifice), which marks the conclusion of the annual hajj pilgrimage.
Disrespecting the Holy Quran is actually disrespecting all divine religions, humanity, and divine values, Raisi said, adding that the Muslim world will not let it pass.
People should know how those who claim to support freedom of expression disrespect Muslim sanctities arrogantly, he said.
"They are lying; they are not supporters of freedom of expression, speech, and pen. They oppose freedom and want to impose their despotism as freedom of expression on humanity."
