Denmark allows refugees free access

Thousands now expected to flood into Sweden to seek asylum.

Denmark allowed refugees to move freely through its territory to Sweden after days of chaos when authorities closed ferry services and a motorway link with Germany in an attempt to stem an inflow of thousands of asylum seekers.

Denmark, whose government took out adverts in Lebanese newspapers to discourage migrants, emerged as the latest front in Europe’s worst refugee crisis in decades as 3,200 people entered since Sunday, most trying to get to Sweden.
