Erna Solberg, Prime Minister of Norway talks about the criticism of her country's stance on migration issues. Is she putting populism above principle?

But the government is receiving criticism for its own stance on migration and asylum issues. Erna Solberg is Norway鈥檚 prime minister. Is she putting populism above principle?
