Iran blasted Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi as “ignorant” for saying that Western civilization is superior to Islam.

“These remarks are the result of the Italian prime minister’s ignorance about Islam’s culture and civilization and its fundamental impact on Western civilization,” said Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi, quoted by Iran’s official Islamic Republic News Agency.

“It is expected that the Italian prime minister will revise his viewpoint and correct his remarks,” Kharrazi said, adding that the comments were “irresponsible.”
