Conseil européen - Déclaration de la Présidence sur les déclarations de M. Mahatir au Sommet de la Conférence islamique (en anglais)

Date: jeudi 16 octobre 2003
Type de document: Déclarations PESC

The EU deeply deplores the comments made earlier today by Dr Mahathir in his speech at the opening of the 10th session of the Islamic Summit conference in Putrajaya, Malaysia, in which he said:

"We [Muslims] are actually very strong. 1.3 billion people cannot be simply wiped out. The Europeans killed 6 million Jews out of 12 million. But today the Jews rule this world by proxy. They get others to fight and die for them."

Such words hinder all our efforts to further inter-ethnic and religious harmony, and have absolutely no place in a tolerant world.
