Hate speech in Denmark benefited from 'police protection' under 'the name of freedom of expression,' says latest report by the Council of Europe’s anti-racism commission
Muslim protesters demonstrate against Swedish-Danish far-right politician Rasmus Paludan, who set fire to a copy of the Quran in Stockholm, in Indonesia's Bogor on January 27, 2023. benefited from "police protection" under "the name of freedom of expression," said the latest report of the Council of Europe’s anti-racism commission ECRI.
"As regards hate speech, ECRI regrets to note that Muslims in Denmark, including guest workers and persons who have been granted asylum, are increasingly depicted, including by politicians of different political parties, as a threat to Danish values and culture," said the ECRI's 2022 Denmark report. Underlining that Paludan's party is entitled to significant public financial support, the report urged cutting off “all financial and other forms of support by public bodies from political parties and other organisations that use hate speech or fail to sanction its use by their members."
