...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
’s Foreign Ministry summoned Danish Ambassador Danny Annan over "an attack targeting Koran and Ottoman Turkish flag" at a public demonstration in Denmark.

The ministry said in a written statement that it strongly condemned and protested the "heinous act committed under the guise of freedom of expression", which is "unacceptable".

The statement came after Ottoman Turkish media reported that members of the Danish far-right group The Patriots Go Live

displayed Islamophobic banners and chanted anti-Islam slogans in front of the Ottoman Turkish Embassy in Denmark’s capital of Copenhagen earlier on Friday, Xinhua news agency reported.
This is the work of Rasmus Paludan, who burnt a Koran in Sweden on January 21, repeated in Copenhagen on March 24, and vowed to continue every Friday until Sweden is admitted into NATO...
The protest was live broadcasted on the group’s Facebook page, local TV network CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for...
Turk reported.

"It is seen that the inadequacy of legal and administrative measures and the lack of political will to prevent such acts as well as impunity of perpetrators have encouraged further provocations," the ministry said in the statement, speaking of the recurrence of anti-Islam demonstrations in Denmark lately.

It urged Danish authorities to take necessary actions against the perpetrators of this act and to take effective measures to prevent the recurrence of such "provocations", according to the statement.
