VIENNA: Austria announced on Wednesday that it would pause family reunifications for those with asylum status starting in May, becoming the first in the European Union to do so. Several EU countries are mulling stopping or tightening the right for people who cannot safely return to their home countries to bring their families, but so far none have a complete halt in place.
Austria has already halted family reunification for Syrians since the ouster of Syria´s leader Bashar al-Assad last December, arguing it has to reassess the situation and threatening their deportation.
