#AFG Afghans were promised they will be evacuated. Nonetheless, it is important the international community agrees on an evacuation hub to enable the evacuation of those who are eligible but do not have passports or other travel documents. It is also important to have more
coordination among Western allies on how eligible Afghans can be evacuated &accelerate the process in view of increasing,&unfortunately expected,persecution,killing &assassination of Afghans who have had an association with former gov,international allies&the wider civil society.
Evacuations must not have artificial deadlines and timelines attached to them. Afghans in their thousands are inside Afghanistan, they have been struggling to get clear updates and further guidance. America and Canada but also other countries must start recruiting additional
Afghan partners with an excellent command of the language and a better understanding of the situation, additional resources in a third country, that can serve as a hub for processing that will ease the suffering of Afghans.
At the moment inside Afghanistan, I have been speaking to Afghans who have approvals from various natons, all their documents in line - but no way of getting out.
These Afghans are going through a harsh Afghan winter, lack of economic opportunities and more importantly threats of assassinations, kidnappings and retribution’s is real.
Most of those stranded have families or family members scattered in US, Canada and Europe, reuniting families must be at the Center of a process that can bring these Afghans together.
Getting a passport, marriage certificate, or any other documents in country has been a nearly impossible task. Most Afghans have been working on this for months. There should be a waiver for Afghans, if they can provide one form of ID.
