immigrants in Norway-statistics
It is impossible to hide: immigrants in Norway, especially immigrants in Oslo, are an increasing group of people living in the country of the fjords. The Progress Party (Frp) produced a special report at the end of April. There are around a hundred suggestions in the report for Frp's future immigration policy.

Areas of the city inhabited almost exclusively by immigrants
It is worth noting that there are settlements in Oslo that are practically fully inhabited by immigrants. We are talking mainly about: Fossum and Rommen. 90% of children born there have an immigrant mother. The Norwegian authorities are against such ethnic segregation. The "lifeline" is to be the introduction of a ban on the settlement of refugees in municipalities where the level of "immigration is already at the level of 15% or higher." Will this idea help to deal with the problem?
immigrants in Norway-statistics. A controversial proposition
It cannot be denied that this idea raises some kind of controversy. Will limiting the number of immigrants in a given region make them leave the country? Some time ago, the Progress Party indicated that it wanted to allocate more money to financial aid in conflict zones.
