Top EU court adviser finds Denmark's ghetto law' is direct discrimination
Briefly

A senior adviser to the EU's top court criticized Denmark's ghetto law, which targets neighborhoods with significant non-western populations for demolition and housing reductions. Areas labeled as 'ghettos' face drastic measures based on ethnic origin, leading to potential displacement of residents. The European Court of Justice noted that this legislation directly discriminates against tenants, despite not explicitly targeting individuals based on ethnicity. The ruling highlights the broader implications of such policies on migrant communities and underscores issues of social justice and inequality.
The Danish ghetto law's categorization based on ethnicity was termed discriminatory by an EU adviser, indicating a bias against non-western immigrants.
