Europe asks: Is it time for Syria’s refugees to go home?

Live Mint  

Days after Syria’s autocratic ruler fled the country, European politicians have reignited the debate over the region’s decade-old refugee crisis. “No country has received as many Syrians in the European Union as Germany… So far this year, the vast majority of those who got protection were Syrians," said Gerald Knaus, head of the European Stability Initiative, a Berlin-based think tank, and an author on migration and international conflicts, “So this could be a potential major turning point and game-changer." While he is eager to show his German wife the country of his birth, he said “I don’t see myself moving back…I have grown deep roots here, things would need to go incredibly well in Syria for me to uproot myself again." Al Hamidi, who arrived in Germany in 2015 and obtained German citizenship in 2021, said he was planning to return to Syria in the coming years but wanted the country to stabilize first. Yet German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser said “it wouldn’t be serious in such a situation to speculate" about a return of Syrian refugees.
