Denmark does nothing to reduce statelessness

Danish authorities lack a fixed procedure for determining statelessness, and despite international criticism, nothing is being done to reduce the problem

"Non-Western"

When Statistics Denmark divides the world into ‘Western’ and ‘non-Western’ countries, it contributes to stigmatization based on non-objective criteria.

Danish language proficiency requirements are being politically abused

Crime among refugees and descendants

Danish citizens commit 8 out of 10 crimes in Denmark and crime rates among non-Western citizens has declined for the past 20 years

Back to Syria?

After the fall of Assad, many Syrians in Denmark have shown interest in returning – for a visit or permanently. But this involves many difficult considerations.
