The Immigration Ministry announced it will establish an expert panel to examine screening citizenship applicants for antidemocratic views, aligning with Danish democratic values.
The proposed screening aims to ensure awarded citizenship aligns with Denmark's Constitution and international human rights obligations, balancing democratic integrity and legal frameworks.
Recent interviews of citizenship applicants by parliament raised concerns over breaking normal procedures and compliance with human rights conventions, prompting the need for defined screening criteria.
Under existing laws, Danish citizenship can only be granted through legislation, meaning decisions cannot solely rely on administrative assessments or judicial actions.
