Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, the deputy prime minister for political affairs, spoke during an event in Kabul today (Thursday). He called on neighboring countries to stop the forced return of Afghan refugees to Afghanistan.
The deputy prime minister for political affairs also urged all host countries to treat Afghan refugees with respect.
In this program, Mawlawi Abdul Kabir stated, “We ask neighboring countries and all nations around the world where Afghans have the right to live. Do not force Afghan refugees to return. Do not deport them forcibly. Allow Afghans to return voluntarily to Afghanistan.”
He further mentioned that the Islamic Emirate is striving for significant progress in the political and economic sectors. He urged Afghan businessmen to invest within the country to create more job opportunities for Afghan citizens.
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir said: “Our request to Afghans who are businessmen and have capital is to return to Afghanistan, conduct business and trade. The profit you earn abroad, do the same in Afghanistan with the intention of creating jobs for poor Afghans.”

Challenges Facing Afghan Refugees
According to Haqqani, after the re-establishment of the Islamic Emirate, millions of Afghan refugees have returned to the country.
The acting Minister of Refugees and Repatriation stated that the country is now safe and that authorities must prevent human trafficking.
Khalil Rahman Haqqani further stated, “They try to make money from human trafficking. Today, since the enemy has failed, they want to create disunity, insecurity, and conspiracies under different names and ethnicities in Afghanistan.”
Abdul Rahman Rashid, deputy minister of Refugees and Repatriation, said, “The unhealthy, illegal, and un-Islamic decisions and actions of some host countries have caused problems. Thousands of families are facing these issues.”
In the past two years, some countries, especially neighboring ones, have increased the deportation of Afghan refugees, and reports have emerged of mistreatment of Afghan refugees in these countries.
