The girl's comment on "those who don't integrate should not be allowed to stay" is exactly what most people in Denmark tell themselves to protect themselves from the reality . The truth is, most people don't care about immigration law, it's too abstract and too far away from their personal life. That changes when they decide to mary one, because then they find out they cannot stay in the country with their spouse, even though they are married. Just crazy.

When you go to someone else’s country do you try and speak their language? Basic words and manners go along way. It’s all about integrating.

People who came as real refugees, especially when they were children, who worked hard to learn the language, who educated themselves, and who did everything in their power to become respected members of society and never broke any law should be allowed to stay. It's crazy that these stuff are happening while there are thousands and thousands of illegal immigrants without education, skills, and documents who enter the EU

I'm so proud of Aya! I hope the guardian steps up again to protect the innocent civilians who are refugees!Just a reminder,anyone of us could've been a refugee,had we been born someplace else.We would've had to move not out of choice but because of survival.

I completely understand denmarks choice and a country has a right to choose their laws but they should fair and do it all immigrants even those from Asia and Europe. No polish workers or Ukrainians refugees either

With climate change, it is more likely that populations from the south will have to migrate massively to the north. Either the North invests in the South in minimizing the effects of the climate crisis for which it is largely responsible, or it will have to get used to living, for better or worse, with populations with radically different cultures.

[@Nesbo5155]

You watch to much news

[@m_smart]

So its the "north" that causes all the climate changes ??🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. what a narrow minded insight

[@TheSpiritOfTheTimes]

This is Denmark. Horribly smug because it is small, well-managed, liberal and well-meaning, safe and rich in its part of the world, safely nestled among bigger powers.

[@TomaszDK]

Yes, now safely nestled. There was a time we were thrown about like a piece of morsel for the big boys at the table. But by being humble, and through diplomacy and trade, we have become a well liked nation, that brings a tiny bit of value to the big table in this part of the world.
