Kabul Calls for Tolerance From Countries Hosting Afghan Refugees
TOLOnews
A statement released by the Islamic Emirate’s spokesman, Zabiullah Mujahid, said that Afghans have been forced to migrate to various countries due to the wars over the past 45 years in Afghanistan.
The statement called on host countries to not forcefully deport Afghan refugees as the migrants do not have any preparation for it yet, and for tolerance based on Islamic and neighborly manners.
The statement said that the Afghans have not created problems or destabilization in host countries, and urged the neighboring countries to treat them with proper behavior.
This comes as the deadline announced by Pakistan caretaker government for the Afghan refugees to leave the country ends on Wednesday.
The deadline calls for nearly 2 million Afghan refugees to leave Pakistan or they will face forced deportation.
“The Afghans who are being forcefully deported, their materials, money and other property are their personal property and no one has the right to seize it from them and impose unfair and unjust conditions on them,” the statement reads.
The statement called on Afghan traders to cooperate with the commission established to help the refugees. It also instructed the Ministry of Industry and Commerce and other relevant ministries to provide necessary facilities for the traders and industrial owners who are returning home.
The Islamic Emirate meanwhile urged Afghans who are in exile due to political concerns to return, saying that they can live their lives in calmness in Afghanistan.
