First-time asylum seekers in EU drop by 17% in June, Eurostat says
First-time applications from people seeking asylum in European Union countries declined in June, with Syrians, Venezuelans, and Afghans being the primary applicants, a report from the bloc's statistics agency Eurostat showed on Friday.
Eurostat reported 70,375 first-time asylum requests from non-EU citizens across the bloc's 27 countries, a decrease of 17% compared to June 2023.
Syrians remained the largest share of applicants, accounting for 12% in June, followed by Venezuelans and Afghans, accounting for 9% and 8% respectively.
Of those applications, more than three quarters were received by Germany, Spain, Italy, and France, while 2.9% were made by unaccompanied minors, Eurostat said.
However, applications submitted to Germany in June 2024 dropped by 27% to 16,770 compared with the same period last year. As the far-right continues to gain traction politically in Germany, the government is imposing stricter measures on immigration.
