Battle disrespecting the prophet incites violence and its immoral westerners must understand that all muslims love the prophet and so can the prophet manes and so to muslims and all prophets if the western europe claim they want peace and security then they must stop interfering in the internal issues of muslims the prophet told us to respect as we hope those who made mistakes will compensate for it and respect all religions. These words by the president to echo the sentiments that weve heard within the iran over the past. Days but of course iran has had a very close relationship with the french president man you walk around during the debates in this question as they had over the Nuclear Agreement it was president rouhani and president mccracken who were on the phone with each other a number of times so this has an escalated much further than a diplomatic dispute or the momentary diplomatic a lack of understanding as the iranians put it but its unlikely to escalate further for now its just that every part of the government for now as well as the residence part of the residence in tehran and making their feelings known that the comments made by the french president are absolutely unacceptable and theyre on board those who thanks very much for the bar the interim.
