France to suspend asylum applications for Syrians after Assad's fall

The French government is working on a suspension of current asylum cases from Syria after the fall of President Bashar Assad, the interior ministry said, adding that a decision on the matter would likely be reached within the next few hours. Paris is working on a solution similar to the one put forward by Germany which earlier said it would put asylum applications on hold, the French foreign ministry said. Other European Union countries have done the same.
