 | | The Faeroe Islands are part of the Kingdom of Denmark and the Danish Government supports the Faeroes with massive subventions and ensures that the Faeroe people have one of the highest living standards in Europe. | | | Responding to the official inquiries by the European Parliament, the Danes refer to the „cultural autonomy“ of the Färöe-Islands and to the fact that the self governed group of islands has not joined the EU, whereby it has to be treated as a third country by the EU. | | | The last survivors swim for hours in the blood of their family members, intimidated, tortured and under the painful screams of the dying. |
