Turkey's Foreign Ministry continues to smuggle people fleeing Afghanistan, where security is deteriorating. There was a strong repulsion as there was.

In Afghanistan, security is rapidly deteriorating as US troops seek to complete their withdrawal by the end of this month, as rebel Taliban intensify their offensive.



Under these circumstances, on the 2nd, the U.S. government announced measures to further expand the scope of Afghans who may be retaliated by the Taliban and others as refugees in cooperation with the U.S. military as an interpreter, and applied the measures. The desired Afghans explained that they had to first leave for a third country other than the United States on their own.



Turkey's Foreign Ministry, which has been smuggling a series of people fleeing Afghanistan, issued a statement on the 3rd, expressing a sense of crisis that US measures could lead to a surge in smuggling from Afghanistan to Turkey.



In a statement, the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said, "Japan, which has already accepted the largest number of refugees in the world, cannot afford to bring in new refugees." I do not admit it. "



The US government envisions Turkey as one of the transit points for accepting Afghans as refugees, and the future focus will be on the possibility of obtaining Turkish cooperation.
