As well as what @najaB said, I imagine English being a prominent language plays a large part. French of course is prominent in North African countries and I wouldn't be surprised if many refugees from there decide to stop at France. But this is what happens when countries like Britain and France go round the world pillaging and colonising large areas, which on gaining independence are left in a poor state that creates the conditions for instability to drive refugee crises, while also having the language of their former coloniser (talk about reaping the whirlwind).There is no obligation for someone to claim asylum in the first 'safe' country that they pass through. If, for example, someone has family in the UK then it is right and proper for them to make their asylum claim to the UK. Which is a hell of a lot easier to do if they're already here.
