West institutionalizing Islamaphobia
Iran's foreign minister says the West is institutionalizing Islampophobia to pretend that Islam is an enemy that should be fought against.

"Islamophobia is a theory developed in the West," Manouchehr Mottaki said in a forum under "Common World: Progress through Diversity" in Kazakhstan's capital, Astana, on Friday.

"Following the collapse of the bi-polar system of the world, the liberal democrats tried to institutionalize Islamophobia as a theory in the West, because they wanted to indoctrinate the public opinion that there is a new enemy and that they should fight against it," IRNA quoted Mottaki as saying.

"Islamophobia is a challenge for all, because the issue heavily influences international peace," Iran's top diplomat warned.

He added that resolving global challenges needs a global partnership, which should bring all the world's countries including the Western and Muslim countries together.
