Denmark has introduced a legal reform allowing the deportation of foreign nationals sentenced to at least one year of imprisonment for serious crimes, such as aggravated assault and rape. This measure, announced by Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, could conflict with European human rights conventions. The reform is part of a series of legal changes aimed at tightening controls on foreigners without legal residence, introducing new monitoring systems, and strengthening international cooperation.
