- Self-proclaimed
"humanitarian superpower" Sweden, with its pride in
upholding "human rights," decided to take a 6-year
old boy, who lost his mother, away from his grandparents and
deport him to an orphanage in Ukraine. Meanwhile, Sweden
refuses to deport the worst criminals and terrorists if there
is the tiniest perceived risk that they might be harmed in the
country to which they would be sent.
- In spite of sharp
criticism from Sweden's highest government agencies, the
Swedish government defied Swedish law to allow 9,000 mainly
undocumented Afghan men, whose asylum applications were
rejected, to study in high school alongside Swedish
adolescents.
- As early as 2001, a
news report by newspaper Dagen showed that Christian
asylum seekers had their applications rejected in Sweden far
more frequently than Muslim asylum seekers.

to an orphanage in Ukraine. (Image is illustrative and does not represent

In October, Sweden, which apparently likes to see
itself as a "humanitarian superpower," decided to expel
and deport a 6-year old boy to the Ukraine. The boy had been
technically orphaned when his mother died and his father, who lives
in the Ukraine, formally renounced custody of his child in a
Ukrainian court. The boy, Denis, has no other relatives in the
Ukraine and would therefore have to go straight to an orphanage.
In 2015, Denis's mother brought him from the Ukraine
to Sweden -- where his mother's parents were already living. She
applied for a residence permit for herself and her son, but it was
rejected, for reasons apparently still undisclosed. News outlets do
not seem to have been digging into why her original request was
rejected. The Swedish Migration Agency (Migrationsverket)
decided to deport Denis, even though he is living with his maternal
grandparents, who have applied to adopt the child.
