Sweden considering special security measures after Quran desecrations
Prime Minister of Sweden, Ulf Kristersson,

Tehran, IRNA – Prime Minister of Sweden Ulf Kristersson has said that the Swedish government has already begun working on analyzing the legal situation in the country to consider measures that could boost security following acts of insults against the holy Quran in the Nordic country.

Kristersson said in a statement on his Instagram account on Sunday said that he had discussed the security measures with Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, another country where new laws have been adopted to prevent sacrilege of sanctities that happened there earlier this month. 

"We are in the most serious security policy situation since World War II, and here at home we know that both states, state-like players and individual individuals can take advantage of the situation", he added.

"We have also already begun work on analyzing the legal situation – including the law of order – in order to consider measures to strengthen our national security and the security of Swedes in Sweden and in the world," said the Swedish premier. 

Earlier on July 26, Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen stressed in a telephone conversation with his Iranian counterpart Hossein Amirabdollahian that his government condemned any insult to religious sanctities and abuse of freedom of speech.

Rasmussen expressed regret over the sacrilege of the holy Quran, saying that Denmark strongly condemns any act of insulting the holy Quran.
