When Rawan Bertawi, a 22-year-old Syrian refugee living in Denmark, reported for her shift at a cosmetic company’s warehouse one day in mid-December, she found her keycard didn’t work. She sensed something was wrong.
Her flustered manager summoned her into his office and showed her an email he had just received from the Danish immigration service: Her refugee status—along with her right to work—had been revoked and she would have to leave the country. Ms. Bertawi and her family are among dozens of Syrian refugees stripped of their residency visas by Denmark and told to return tobecause the Danish government now deems Damascus—where they had previously been living—safe. Human-rights groups contest the claim that any part of Syria is safe for returnees.
But since Denmark cut off formal diplomatic relations with Syria near the start of the civil war a decade ago, it is unable to deport Syrians. Instead it is placing those who no longer have legal status in removal camps, a policy that aid groups say is aimed at pressuring Syrians to voluntarily return to Syria.
“This is ruining human lives,” said Ms. Bertawi, who went to Denmark in 2015, when she was 15. “Why would you wait until now that we have integrated and we now consider this our country and reached this stage and now you are telling us to go?”
Denmark helped to destroy Syria. 🖕 them
I really feel for the normal people in the country who helped foreign forces to destroy their own country by thinking those foreigners were there to help them.
I bet the real reason is that they are committing too much crime?
Based Denmark
Bassey_000 we just spoke about this.
Well we live in a country that doesn’t care if it’s safe or not just don’t let them in. We even turned them over to the Russian killer. This country has no right to judge any other.
Don't let the innocent look fool you Denmark is under siege The 'migrants' are destroying the country Much like Sweden Holland & Norway These countries gave migrants shelter food, money, education, etc. In return they refused to accept the local culture & demanded free everything
Good, now if only the rest of Europe did the same, Europe might be a bit of a safer place to live, and we'd have more money in the kitty, rather than pay them welfare and give them social housing, our own people need it more.
Europe needs Syrian colonizers like Syria needs European colonizers. Everybody go home.
Imagine the reaction here!
Denmark is so racist! -Democrats
US and Biden should move in fast and take them to the US. They will surely increase Democrats's votes in the next election.

Sanctions for denmark?
Which parts of Syria deemed safe now?
Father insane old evil world rapist massacre liar Winston Churchill Chou,stole killed all kinds of drugs & injections to change body,face,height,weight,skin color+invisible high tech,shrink,glue sprays to change his age,face,height & his identity,he said nobody knows& catch him?!
I hope Turkish governments do the same thing, that’s enough.
That’s what happens when you have temporary status in a foreign country.
This is disgusting
Well Done 👍👍👍👍
Disgusting
The government finally realized that they made a big mistake by accepting immigrants?
Denmark only sent those with a dirty criminal record to Syria, it is useless to put a photo of a woman on the article 🤣😂😂
Holy crap! That’s the plot of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. 😳
I feel sorry for them.
Who is surprised by this that has visited Denmark?

Well, if they are Assad supporters and have visited Damascus many times, I can see where is that coming from.
Good
Truthfully, I don’t feel sorry for them, that land belonged to Africans ,,,,,,,, so what goes around comes around. Fuck em
hey dumbass SecMayorkas see the sensible policies. also these ppl have over 20+ peaceful countries *just around their country* w/ same/similar language&culture willing to take them in. Yet u r foolishly dumping millions who are not even asylees. CLOWN.
how safe is it? its not even a country anymore;
US should accommodate them till their country comes to normal.
That’s a terrible idea
Fair enough.
Refugees are human beings with rights to basic means of survival, are they not? Not saying the Danes are wrong, I’m saying the refugees are entitled to food, shelter, education, health, safety and entertainment. Nobody force Country Leaders to take the position. Now, find a way!
Chân thành, trò chuyện để giải toả những căng thẳng, mệt mỏi trong công việc cũnh như trong cuộc sống.
Syria will need its young men and women and children back someday. In order to rebuild their nation.
Υes
not all Danes are great
Impressed this article is such a magnet for bots/trolls or those of a venomous nature. But what do I know? Never been anywhere near armed fanatics. Maybe it's all fine. I've been in a mall, school and even Walmart once, but that shouldn't count because that was a long time ago.
AOC says Denmark has amazing social benefits. This is why !!!
So are all other refugees! When the conditions causing refugees are no longer present, all refugees from all around the world should be returned to their national countries.
Not a USA issue mind your business
Hey, Denmark still operating there own cages, shocker. I lived there for 3 years and found a very discriminatory society. This article is spot on. DenmarkinUSA
damn, that's cold blooded and heartless
TIME magazine protecting identities of several criminally involved Phoenix Police, other letter writers' re: March 12, 1971 Phoenix-Scottsdale murder of my son Patrick Taylor Robbins. Tessa Berenson one of those at TIME magazine who knows.
You mean after stripping Syria of its wealth . You don't want the refugees anymore. Yet you supported the war. Take responsibility. All nations who supported the war should give 1 million USD to each Syrian returning to Syria to help them rebuild.
good 👍that's not Denmark responsibility.
Safe?
Dozens?
All refugees think they can stay forever! Good move!
Syria was safe again. Till January 20. Apperantly Syrian gas is more important to Biden than human lives. Thank you mister President.
Another great withdrawals today!! $3,500 Really appreciate what you've done for me, you're the best and i promise to spread your good work. Thanks lisarights1
