The Minister of Immigration and Integration of Denmark, Kaare Dibwad Beck, expressed his position regarding the stay of Ukrainian refugees in the country, noting that they should return home after the end of the war. He expressed hope that Ukrainians would be interested in rebuilding their own country.
"We have nothing to be ashamed of. I hope that Ukrainians are interested in rebuilding their own country, which needs it," said the minister, pointing out that cultural differences between Ukrainians and Danes exist, although Ukrainians are "culturally closer" than people from the Middle East.
The minister also emphasized that refugees can obtain a residence permit in Denmark in other ways, in particular through participation in a business scheme.
It should be noted that Denmark accepts Ukrainian refugees during the conflict in Ukraine, and the statement of the Minister of Immigration and Integration concerns the issues of their further status and integration into Danish society after the cessation of hostilities.
