Editorial: Liberation

• The ceasing of power of Syrian tyrant Bachar Al-Assad has triggered an alarming and obsessive migratory response within Europe.
• The extreme right has begun significantly influencing European migration policy.
• The main focus of several European capitals is to discuss and implement measures to suspend asylum procedures and even radically deport some refugees.
• Migration politics in Europe is being driven by fear rather than considering the relief of a country emerging from an atrocious dictatorship.
• The fallout of Assad's collapse might have imminent consequences for some Syrians seeking asylum.

Conclusion: European capitals are acting on xenophobic fear, potentially threatening the survival of Syrians as the political situation in Damascus shifts.
