US Administration Considers Sending Afghans To Congo
U.S. officials are considering a plan to relocate 1,100 Afghans who assisted American forces to the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The move involves approximately 400 children and comes amid a massive displacement crisis currently affecting the DRC. This decision highlights the complex logistical and humanitarian challenges of resettling wartime allies. Protests occurred outside the US Embassy in Kinshasa last week regarding the arrival of Latin Americans in the country. President Trump declined to respond when asked about the potential transfer of Afghans to Congo at the White House last week. Many of these Afghans worked alongside US forces. Protests against migration policies occurred in Kinshasa on Monday.
