From the late 1960s until 1992, Danish authorities forced around 4,500 Inuit women, around half of all those of child-bearing age, to wear a contraceptive coil — or intrauterine device (IUD) — without their consent.

It’s a pity that it follows a different kind of pressure from the USA. That takes the sincerity out of it a bit.
