The Austrian authorities promised to pay 1 thousand euros to refugees from Syria who decided to return to their homeland.
“Austria will support Syrians who wish to return to their homeland. They will receive a payment of 1 thousand euros. The country needs its citizens during the recovery period,” Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer wrote in his X-blog.
Nehammer added that the asylum process for Syrians remains frozen.
Austria will support Syrians, who wish to return to their home country, with a return bonus of 1,000 Euro. The country now needs its citizens in order to be rebuilt. Ongoing asylum procedures for Syrian citizens in Austria will continue to be suspended.
