    If you have an extradition treaty with someone, you can typically arrest people if they’ve been charged for something in the country you have a deal with, even if they haven’t violated your laws.

    Regardless: What the person is charged with is unrelated to them being a whaling activist as far as I can tell, but to them causing harm while acting as an activist, which I suppose is also a crime in Denmark.

      What about the endangered whales who were harmed. Forgot to mention that conveniently.

        What whales? No whale of any kind had anything to do with Denmark signing an extradition treaty with Japan or with Denmark arresting someone who’s wanted for committing a crime, which is what the comment was about.

        Did you respond to the wrong comment?
