Global Outrage Erupts Over Quran Burning: Muslim Nations Demand Action at UN

Muslim states, including Iran and Pakistan, are demanding accountability and action at the UN Human Rights Council after a Koran burning incident in Sweden, which they consider to be incitement of religious hatred. The motion brought by Pakistan seeks a report from the UN rights chief on the issue and calls on states to review their laws to prevent and prosecute acts of religious hatred. While Muslim states argue for stronger measures, Western members express concerns about the implications for free speech. Intense negotiations are ongoing, and a vote is expected, with the motion likely to pass due to the support of OIC countries.
