Austria to halve asylum-seeker numbers in 2016
Austria said Wednesday it will seek to cap the number of asylum-seekers at 37,500 in 2016, less than half of the 90,000 claims accepted last year, AFP reported. “We can’t take in all asylum-seekers in Austria,” Chancellor Werner Faymann said after a national asylum summit in Vienna. The government plans to limit the total number to 130,000 over the next four years.
