Denmark records historic low in asylum grants
Denmark's Immigration Minister Rasmus Stoklund announced that the country granted only 839 asylum requests by the end of November 2025, marking a historic low. The government registered a total of 1,835 asylum requests during the same period, reflecting a significant decline influenced by strict immigration policies and a long-standing 'zero refugee' approach under Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. This trend continues a pattern of limiting refugee admissions that has been shaped by far-right political influences over the past two decades.
