(Copenhagen Post) A broad majority of Parliament has voted in favour of banning donations that seek to undermine democracy in Denmark.
The move aims to prevent potentially extremist forces from using donations to erode basic freedom and human rights.
“There exists extremist forces abroad that try to turn our Muslim citizens against Denmark and drive a wedge into our society,” said the immigration minister, Mattias Tesfaye.
“Numerous times in recent years, the media have written about Danish mosques receiving millions from, for instance, the Middle East. This the government will counteract.”
