Angela Merkel has performed an abrupt U-turn on her open-door policy towards people fleeing Syria's civil war, with Berlin announcing that the hundreds of thousands of Syrians entering Germany would not be granted asylum or refugee status. Syrians would still be allowed to enter Germany, but only for one year and with "subsidiary protection" that limits their rights as refugees. Family members would be barred from joining them.
