ISLAMABAD, (MANEND NEWS): Foreign Minister Makhdoom Shah Mahmood Qureshi
has rejected the impression of building refugee camps or resettlement processing
facilities on Pakistani soil for the people coming from Afghanistan.
In an interview with a foreign journal, Shah Mahmood Qureshi said instead, Pakistan
would continue to facilitate the departure of those with valid documents who wished to
exit Afghanistan via Pakistan.
The Foreign Minister said Pakistan has been hosting over three million Afghan refugees
for so many decades without any international help or assistance and now we do not have
the capacity to absorb more. He said that any processing facility where Afghan citizens
can apply for asylum should be in Afghanistan.
Shah Mahmood Qureshi said the UK should “accept the new reality” in Afghanistan and
deliver immediate aid to the Taliban-run country as isolating the Taliban authorities
would lead to economic collapse, “anarchy”, and “chaos”.
