BAKU, Azerbaijan, March 15. Azerbaijan
reaffirms its firm commitment to respect, tolerance, and peaceful
coexistence among cultures and religions, the Foreign Ministry of
Azerbaijan said in a statement on its X page, Trend reports.
“On the International Day to Combat Islamophobia, we reaffirm
our firm commitment to respect, tolerance, and peaceful coexistence
among cultures and religions.
Islamophobia, discrimination, and hatred against individuals
because of their faith undermine the very principles of human
dignity, equality, and mutual understanding. Such prejudice has no
place in our societies,” the publication said.
The Azerbaijani MFA notes that Islam is rooted in values of
peace, compassion, justice, and solidarity.
“Misrepresenting or stigmatizing Islam is unacceptable.
Combating intolerance in all its forms remains essential to
building inclusive, peaceful, and resilient societies,” the
ministry noted.
