Trump’s Travel Ban Threatens Afghan Allies

The destiny of thousands of Afghans is waiting for the United States to reach the United States after serving with US troops after President Trump took office. Now the former soldiers are roaming most of them to bring more and more countries before the administration introduced the travel ban that could restrict their entry.

One in Executive Order On January 20, Mr Trump instructed cabinet members, including the Secretary of State to compile a list of countries, “for which the scrutiny and screening information is so lacking that partial or complete suspension is guaranteed from these countries.”

This order calls for completion of the list within 60 days. Since this last date is approaching, supporters of Afghan allies have intensified efforts to bring eligible people to the United States.

“We are engaged in high intensity, fanatical works,” said Andrew Sullivan, a military veteran, said Andrew Sullivan.

During the chaos from Afghanistan in August 2021, the US military helped remove 78,000 Afghans who served as spokesmen during the war and other capabilities. Tens of thousands of others who support US forces are still trying to reach the United States.

At the time of war, allies can apply for special immigrants visa, which allows them to travel to the United States with their families and get permanent residence. Many people have been waiting for the completion of processing by US officials for months or more in neighboring Pakistan and Albania and Qatar.

In his first term, Mr Trump banned citizens of seven -majority Muslim countries – Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. According to US officials, this time Afghanistan is one of the countries whose citizens can be clearly blocked. Cuba and Venezuela can also be included, officials said.

If Mr Trump was included in Afghanistan under a new travel ban, the Afghans who helped the United States could be trapped indefinitely.

After his inauguration, the president also signed the AN Executive Order It withheld funds for refugee settlement, suspended the US trip to the United States for thousands of people around the world who were approved for screening and admission.

The Afghans who received special immigrants visa were not prevented from moving the United States. But to stop the entry of refugees, the State Department canceled the agreements that also met the cost of transporting Afghan allies. Suddenly they had to play their way, and many people could not afford it.

“In his passport, visas in his passport removed his way for safety overnight,” said Sonia Norton, director of lawyers, who was left behind in Arlington, VA.

The main character of the organization was to fulfill government assistance by providing loans to Afghan families, buying cars, furthering their education and adjusting to the United States. Following the executive orders, he launched a campaign to raise an emergency fund.

When the program started, a special immigrant visa has been issued to about 37 37,000 Afghans since 2009, and their families. The Taliban, who rule Afghanistan, call these Afghans a traitor. Thousands of people have suffered retaliation and hundreds have been killed to help the United States, according to a report of 2022.

At a time when Mr Trump signed executive orders in January, about 1,000 1,000 Afghans and their family members were visa to come to the United States. Mr Sullivan said coming back to Afghanistan has no option for them.

“There is a very real opportunity to kick them back to the Taliban with a US visa in their passports, and this can prove to be fatal to the allies,” “Mr Sullivan, 38, who was an Army Infantry Company commander in Afghanistan, said in an interview in Doha, Qatar, where he was on the ground.

“If we do not know what is going to happen to the immigration policy, we will not sit useless,” he said. “We’re coming and supporting them.”

No one, established in 2014, has left millions of dollars from veterans and other Americans who are already cleaning aircraft tickets for Afghan families who have already cleared from Albania, Qatar and Pakistan to the United States.

Multiple experienced groups, including Former US troops of Iraq and AfghanistanExpressed concern for the destiny of Afghan allies.

Three Republican members of the Congress In a letter to President Trump That their executive orders resulted in the “immediately shut down” Afghan migration efforts. “These are not random applicants or illegal immigrants who have crossed the southern border.”

“For many Afghans in the pipeline, living in Afghanistan is a death sentence,” he said.

The White House did not respond to the impact of executive orders or the impact of a possible travel ban on Afghans supporting the US mission.

Aman Jaffrey, who interpreted the US Navy seals, arrived at Portland, Albania on March 5 with his wife and four young children.

“When Mr Trump canceled the flights, we didn’t have the money to ship his flights to the United States,” said Mr. Jafri, 33.

After that no one left behind, he said.

On Tuesday, Mr Sullivan arrived in Los Angeles from Doha to meet potential donors.

67 -year -old Evelyn Moore, who has no military links, said he has donated the organization’s efforts because Mr Trump’s policies can “make” serious consequences for those who endanger their lives for the United States.

“We should keep our allies on the path to the United States, as promised,” he said.

By the end of this week, no one left behind each Afghan has flown to the United States, who already has a visa.

He should also help him go to his feet in his own country.

Mr Trump’s executive order stopped financing people like the International Rescue Committee and HIAS, who provided refugees and Afghan allies for at least 90 days after their arrival, providing rented relief and employment services.

No one left behind in cities like Portland, Rochester, New York, and Sacramento, with community organizations and volunteers to fill the falsehood.

Mr Jaffrey’s family is living at an extended stand outside Portland when he is waiting for an apartment to lease his family. Until Mr Jaffrey is self -sufficient, the fare will not be paid and a local group, the Afghan support network, until it is self -sufficient.

“I am very happy that I arrive in the United States,” he said. “I want to work hard for my family for a good and bright future.”
