Depuis la chute du régime de Bachar Al-Assad, la Bulgarie oppose un refus à presque toutes les demandes d'asile émanant des exilé·es syrien·nes.

"Ici je n'ai plus rien" : en Bulgarie, porte d'entrée de l'UE, les Syriens ne sont plus protégés depuis la chute d'Assad

Arrivés en Europe par la frontière turco-bulgare, les Syriens voient leurs demandes d'asile "systématiquement rejetées" en Bulgarie.

Cette situation coince les Syriens dans un territoire qui ne leur offre aucune alternative d'accueil, et rend impossible leur régularisation ailleurs en Europe. Reportage.
