Denmark’s foreign minister and immigration minister are due to face questioning regarding the country’s new immigration policy, deemed to be the European Union’s toughest.

Denmark is set to approve changes in its immigration policy on Tuesday, which would turn it into the toughest state in Europe for refugees and asylum seekers.

The media actively discussed the fact that the authorities will have the right to confiscate valuables. Much bigger problems for refugees involve tightening of rules for family reunification. Owners of the residence permit would have to wait three years instead of one, and woul themselves have to pay for travel expenses for his family.

“It will be written into the narrative of Denmark as a country with a right-wing handling of asylum policy. The thing is, yes, we have a right-handed management, but we have also lived up to all the international agreements,” Danish Foreign Minister Kristian Jensen told Politiko newspaper.
