youtu.be/Q6xOU_EObus Human rights watch, are you watching , or blinded by ignorance?
Amnesty International is urging the European Union to abandon plans to deport Afghan nationals and end any cooperation with the Taliban on forced returns. Nearly 22 million people in Afghanistan need humanitarian assistance. Women and girls face systematic repression, while arbitrary arrests, torture, enforced disappearances, and other grave human rights abuses continue under Taliban rule. Returning people to a country where they face persecution, detention, or violence is not only dangerous—it violates fundamental human rights obligations. The EU cannot claim to stand for human rights while considering policies that could place vulnerable Afghans in harm's way. Protection, not deportation, must be the priority.
