Easier to reject Serbian refugees

The government has received broad support from both the left-wing Enhedslisten and the right wing Dansk Folkeparti for an initiative that will make it easier to reject Serbian asylum seekers claiming to have mental disorders. Residence can be granted on humanitarian grounds to asylum seekers with pyschological conditions that cannot be treated in their home countries. Psychiatric care in Serbia, an EU candiate country, though found by the Justice Ministry to lag behind teatment in Denmark, was deemed adequate. The move comes in the wake of a spike in the number of such asylum seekers.
