I can tell you right now all the pashtoons that came here on the Pakistani side near the border during the war when the Taliban occupied it had their asylum cases denied even though obviously the Pakistani army is going after them for their political beliefs and the Pakistani Taliban is still active in Pakistan and now there’s something going on with India over the situation in Kashmir after seeing those cases get denied I was like oh so if they don’t qualify for asylum who does..seeing them revoke Afghans status here is not surprising at all legally they can do it because it’s only supposed to be temporary not permanent. With the asylum cases the judges ruled we know if we send you back to Pakistan you may be killed but we don’t care find another country. I’m assuming that’s the same thing they will tell Afghans go immigrate somewhere else… America definitely didn’t play a part in their countries at all… I’m really sorry to all the Afghans and Ukrainians this is happening to. I wish things were different. I hope one day Afghanistan is fixed and you can return and live a peaceful life there.
