Germany Halts Asylum Decisions for 47,270 Syrians After Assad's Fall
Dec 9, 2024, 12:08 PM
Germany's Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) has temporarily suspended all asylum decisions for Syrian nationals following the fall of former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. This decision affects approximately 47,270 asylum applications, with about 46,000 being initial requests. The suspension comes as the situation in Syria is deemed too volatile to make reliable asylum decisions. Existing asylum decisions remain unaffected by this pause. The BAMF cited the need to assess the current conditions in Syria before proceeding with new decisions. This move reflects concerns that any rulings made under the current circumstances would be on shaky ground.
