The Danish Prime Minister has issued a formal apology to the victims of a controversial forced contraception program implemented between the 1960s and 1992. This program involved the mandatory use of a contraceptive coil for approximately 4,500 Inuit women residing in Greenland. The program, driven by government policy and a perceived need to control population growth, resulted in significant personal distress and social consequences for the affected individuals. The Danish government acknowledges the harm caused and expresses regret for the suffering endured. The apology focuses on recognizing the past injustices and expressing remorse for the imposition of this policy.
