Afghanistan Foreign Ministry on Saturday expressed concern over the blasphemous film produced in the Netherlands and hoped it would not be put on show, a statement released here said.
"The Islamic Republic of Afghanistan once again expresses its concern over the release of the insulting film "Fitna" and believes attack on religious values of millions of Muslims cannot be justified as freedom of expression," the statement stressed.
The film, produced by a legislator in the Netherlands, according to media reports, pretends Islam as a religion spearheading terror and violence.
Moreover, the statement added that the government of Afghanistan had welcomed the stance of government of the Netherlands, its Prime Minister and its people on the blasphemous film and is sure that such motivation would never represent the official stance of a country which respects the international norms.
Afghans since last month have staged series of peaceful demonstrations in several cities.
