In the wake of the regime’s collapse in Syria, several EU member states have announced the suspension of Syrian asylum applications. Germany, France, the UK, and others have cited the current uncertainty in Syria as justification. Experts suggest that this pause is common during political upheaval, but it raises concerns about leaving applicants in limbo. The shift reflects a broader trend influenced by the rising far-right in Europe. While some politicians advocate for stricter asylum policies, others warn of the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Syria and the need for support in its recovery.
