The Minister of Guidance says Islamophobia is a result of the false narratives by media power brokers.
Mohammad Mehdi Esmaeili, the Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance, said at the twelfth meeting of the Ministers of Information of Islamic Countries
Islamophobia is a result of the false narratives by media power brokers and also the extremist interpretations of Islam. We believe that these interpretations are also created by the same media power with the backing of politicians’ goals. Otherwise, how could extremist groups like ISIS emerge in such a short time and present an incorrect image of Islam?
