UNVERIFIED?

TL;DR ·The provided sources do not mention the specific population percentages for 2001 or 2025.

WHAT WE FOUND

Hi! I've carefully reviewed the materials to look for those specific figures regarding Denmark’s population growth. While the sources provide a great overview of the country's migration trends, they don't actually mention the 4.8% figure from 2001 at all . For the year 2025, the data we have is a bit different from the claim: as of January 1st, 2025, official records show that immigrants and their descendants make up 16% of the population, while immigrants alone account for 10% . Because the specific figure of 14.4% doesn't appear in these documents and there is no 2001 data to compare it to, we cannot verify the accuracy of this statement .
