The United States accepts another 50,000 Afghan refugees.
The US government has accepted another 50,000 Afghans as it continues to accept Afghan citizens whose lives could be endangered during the Taliban regime.
According to US Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, the men have left Afghanistan. Overseas Afghans were reportedly bought in Spain, Kuwait, and Qatar on Friday and are awaiting security operations to enter US territory, according to reports.
This group of citizens, which mainly includes translators, local embassy staff, civil society activists and journalists’ newspapers, has been trading with the US government in the United States for the past two decades, and the United States has pledged to Remove these citizens from Afghanistan as well.
According to Mayorkas, more than 40,000 people have entered the United States so far, 80 percent of whom are those who have received special immigrant visas. The rest are US citizens or holders of green cards.
From the morning of August 16 to September 30, the end of the evacuation of Afghan and American citizens from Kabul, the US Air Force has evacuated approximately 125,000 people, including US civilians, Afghan civilians, and US troops.
The transfer of people, which accelerated after the Taliban entered Kabul, has been met with criticism, and Washington and NATO, which did not anticipate the Taliban gaining control of most of Afghanistan so quickly, were forced to flee the country and thousands of Afghans. Who had helped the Western countries, left?
The exact number of people left behind has not been announced, but General Frank McKenzie, the commander of US Central Command (Centcom), has previously expressed his displeasure with the situation, saying, “Even if we stayed another ten days, we still could not get everyone.” “Let’s get out.”
