Denmark’s hard-line immigration policy is being considered a model for European governments seeking to manage contentious immigration issues and sustain political power. Our reporter Jeanna Smialek reports from Copenhagen on the effects of this policy.
The strategy involves stringent measures to control migration flows, which has led to both domestic and international reactions.

Smialek’s report highlights how the policy is being implemented and its broader implications for European integration and governance.
