Afghanistan and Pakistan to discuss Afghan refugee situation

Kabul, Jan 15 (Prensa Latina) The Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation of Afghanistan announced today its plans to hold a meeting with Pakistan to address the situation of Afghan refugees in that country.

The Ministry said that the meeting, which has not yet been scheduled, will also be attended by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).

The spokesman of the Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation, Abdul Mutalib Haqqani, also reported a meeting between officials of the embassy of the Islamic Emirate (Taliban government) in Pakistan to discuss the current challenges in this regard.

With the worsening relations between Kabul and Islamabad, Pakistan has intensified pressure on Afghan refugees and incidents of deportation, detention and ill-treatment have increased in the last 14 days.
