Fairer world possible for those stuck in crises, says Turkish foreign minister

The Turkish foreign minister said Tuesday that today's global system is insufficient in preventing crises and falls behind of meeting the expectations of humanity.

He noted that anti-Turkish sentiments and Islamophobia are also among these "dangerous" forms of racism, adding that Türkiye is against both outcomes and "strongly rejects" it.
"You've seen the recent events in Sweden, the Netherlands, and Denmark, you've seen the attacks on the Turkish flag and our holy book, the Quran," said Cavusoglu, referring to far-right Danish politician Rasmus Paludan's provocations.
Paludan, the leader of the far-right Stram Kurs (Hard Line) party, burned a copy of the Quran outside the Turkish Embassy in Stockholm in January with police protection and permission from Swedish authorities.
The following week, he burned a copy of the Quran in front of a mosque in Denmark, prompting condemnation from many Muslim-majority countries, including Türkiye.
"Of course, we make the necessary efforts on these issues, when we say to prevent them, they say freedom of expression," said Cavusoglu, adding that there is a "double standard" on this issue, as in everything else.
"We say, this is the footsteps of Nazism," he noted, referring to the Quran burning provocations.
