Several European countries have suspended the processing of asylum applications for Syrians, after the downfall of former president Bashar al-Assad.
Austria's caretaker government has stopped all asylum claims from Syrians and says it is making plans to repatriate or deport people back to their homeland, arguing that the situation in the country has changed fundamentally.
Germany (home to a million Syrians), the United Kingdom, France, and Greece have all said they will suspend asylum decisions for now.
The decisions leave many in the Syrian diaspora in limbo, following the collapse of the Assad regime after 50 years of brutal rule.
