Washington, June 30: The United States has reportedly urged Pakistan not to repatriate Afghan refugees, saying it would have a “destabilising effect” on the Afghan government.
This is contained in a report after Pentagon’s first assessment of the Afghan situation since 9/11, 2001.
The assessment deals with the refugees’ issue from the Afghan perspective, completely ignoring Pakistan’s concern that the Taliban militants use the camps to hide and recuperate, reported the Dawn.
“A worst-case scenario based on Pakistan unexpectedly and precipitously closing and clearing multiple camps and expelling Afghans could result in up to 400,000 refugees trying to return to Afghanistan,” the paper quoted the Pentagon report as warning.
