The latest report by the Council of Europe’s anti-racism commission regrets to note that Muslims in Denmark are increasingly depicted, including by politicians of different political parties, as a threat to Danish values and culture.
Authorities believe the activists were linked to a hard-line group led by Danish anti-Islam and anti-immigration militant Rasmus Paludan and that they planned the Quran burning in Molenbeek, a Brussels district with a large Moroccan population.
