Copenhagen Denmark passed a law on Thursday enabling the Nordic country to relocate asylum seekers to countries outside Europe, defying calls to abandon the plans from NGOs and the UN, which are concerned about an erosion of refugees’ rights.
The move to pass the bill, with 70 lawmakers voting in favour and 24 against, is an apparent break with efforts by the EU to overhaul Europe’s broken migration and asylum rules, an extremely divisive subject within the bloc.
