Will the status of Syrian refugees in Europe change? | Inside Story

More than a million Syrians have sought asylum in Europe in the past 13 years.
But the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad is raising questions about the future of about 100,000 refugees.
At least eight nations have frozen Syrian asylum applications.
What triggered this drastic decision? Do European governments believe Syria is safe for refugees to return?
And if they do choose to go home, what lies ahead?
