Future Syria: What does the Vienna Syrian community think about deportions?
In Austria, the situation for around 40,000 Syrians who could possibly lose their asylum status is extremely precarious. The Ministry of the Interior under Gerhard Karner has developed a plan to accelerate the return of rejected asylum seekers, which triggers concern in the Syrian community. The fall of the Assad regime, which was considered the reason for the escape of around 100,000 Syrians, is seen as a possibility to also carry out deportations, as the "crown" reports. This mainly affects Syrians, who are not considered willing to integrate.
uncertainty in the Syrian community
Return to Syria is currently unthinkable for many in the Syrian community in Austria, which mainly consists of younger people. The migrant Sawra Kerdia, who is considered an endangered Ismailitin, warns that the situation in her home country is still dangerous. "Austria gave us security and support," she explains and emphasizes the meaning of a stable life in the diaspora. The "Free Syrian Community of Austria" under Abdulhkeem is actively involved in democracy and integration, but sees the upcoming returns skeptical and finds: "It is too early. We have to wait."
In addition to discussion about returns, the government initially suspended all ongoing asylum procedures for Syrians. Magnus Brunner, the EU commissioner responsible for migration, supports this decision and emphasizes that returning to unstable Syria has not yet been possible. While some EU countries have also decided to suspend the asylum procedures, Brunner advocates first of all to take care of voluntary returnees before thinking about deportations, which the current debate on asylum law and deportations further fueled, as the courier reports.| Details | |
