(KUNA) The European Union Tuesday said it is in contact with the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and is ready to collaborate with the Jeddah-based 57-member Islamic body on the issue of the repeated desecration of the Quran in Europe.
“We have been in contact with the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Secretariat and their permanent mission in Brussels to understand the OIC’s next step on this issue,” EU spokesperson for foreign affairs and security policy, Nabila Massrali, told a news conference in Brussels today.
“The EU has well-established collaboration with the OIC and we are open to their suggestions on concrete engagement. At this point of time, we have not received any official request for meetings. So we are waiting for their suggestions on our meeting with them,” she said.
