The Norwegian Police Security Service sent a number of Iranian students back to Iran due to their fears that the students would use their education for nuclear program by the Iranian regime. The decision dates back to 2012, where there was a large number of visa applications from Iran to Norway for "work, research, and studies in areas that have what they call 'multipurpose use'". So because of this, Norway refuses to provide education to Iranians. This is a very troubling matter because of their assumption that every Iranian student is planning on using their education for nuclear agendas and not for their own advancement in society. Norway doesn't want Iranians to learn about technology or engineering based on this. While their worry is obviously understandable, it is also a bit racist. The Norwegian Police Security Service is assuming that just because a student happens to be Iranian, they plan on working in some underground factory producing nuclear bombs and weapons of mass destruction. It is quite troubling to hear and unfortunate for the Iranian students.
