Denmark deters refugees
Print Edition
THE Danish parliament yesterday passed a package of measures to deter refugees from seeking asylum, including confiscating valuables to pay for their stay, despite protests from human rights organizations.
The measures were passed by an overwhelming majority.
The government insists the law is needed to stem the flow of refugees even though Denmark and Sweden recently tightened their borders, a move that prompted Germany and Austria to turn back new arrivals heading for Scandinavia.
“There’s no simple answer for a single country, but until the world comes together on a joint solution, Denmark needs to act,” MP Jakob Ellemann-Jensen said during the debate.
