ISLAMABAD — A group of former U.S. diplomats and representatives of resettlement organizations asked Pakistan not to deport thousands of Afghans who have been waiting for U.S. visas under an American program that relocates at-risk Afghan refugees fleeing Taliban rule.
On Thursday, authorities in Pakistan said time was running out for migrants who are living in the country illegally and that they must return to their countries before Oct. 31 to avoid arrest and expulsion. In the letter sent to Pakistan's caretaker Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar, dozens of former U.S. officials and representatives of resettlement organizations asked Pakistan to stop its plan to deport Afghans who entered the country following the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan in 2021.
