14 February 2024 at 10:43 Støre: The decision in Drammen is not legal Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre (Ap) believes the decision in Drammen to accept only Ukrainian refugees is illegal. – Firstly, this is a decision that is not legal. It is not something the municipalities can do. The municipalities have to assess how many they can receive, and then there is an agreement with the state that we accept in a good way. It is a fundamental value that we respect that people on the run must be treated equally, Støre said when he met the press at the Oslo Energy Forum on Wednesday. On Tuesday, a majority in the municipal council in Drammen decided that the municipality will only accept refugees from Ukraine. This has led to strong reactions.
