STRASBOURG, France (AP) - Turkey's prime minister urged the West on Wednesday to make a concerted effort to lessen tensions with Muslim societies, saying more tolerance is needed to mend a deepening rift with the Islamic world.

Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said last year's angry protests over cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad reveal a need to discuss limits to free expression in some cases to keep extremists from exploiting growing polarization.

``Islamophobia and xenophobia are gaining ground in the West. In the Muslim world, on the other hand, there is a widening perception that it is besieged and its values are under attack. The combination of these trends threaten to turn the West and the Islamic world into adversaries,'' Erdogan said in a speech to the Council of Europe, the continent's leading human rights body.

``The way we see anti-Semitism as a crime against humanity, we need to see Islamophobia as a crime against humanity,'' he told the council's parliamentary assembly, made up of lawmakers from various European countries.

``All freedoms have a limit. You cannot have unlimited freedoms,'' Erdogan said. ``We argue freedom of expression can be restricted, and this has to be defined.''

He warned of a possible rise in terrorism if the West ignores cultural differences and does not respect Islamic values.
