Norway continues to receive the highest number of Ukrainian refugees among Nordic countries, with 2,128 arrivals in September, surpassing the combined total of Denmark and Sweden.

Despite new government measures to limit immigration from Ukraine, including restrictions on collective protection for refugees from six western regions, the influx remains significant.

Erlend Wiborg of the Progress Party criticizes Norway's approach as too lenient, suggesting that higher benefits attract more refugees.

In contrast, Labor Minister Tonje Brenna argues that making it harder for refugees is not the solution, emphasizing the importance of integration programs.

The debate highlights differing views on how to manage refugee intake and support in Norway.
