It is worth noting that, on an annual level, in 2023 over one million first-time asylum applications by non-EU citizens were recorded for international protection in countries of the EU.
This is an increase of 20.1 % compared with 2022 and it is the highest number since the peaks recorded during the refugee crisis related to the war in Syria in 2015 and 2016.
