US minions in the Balkans raced to offer their territories to Afghan refugees
Albania, Kosovo and North Macedonia have said they are ready to host refugees from Afghanistan who worked for the American regime.
For this, the three countries received praise from the former US Secretary of State, the initiator of the bombing of Yugoslavia, Madeleine Albright, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Albania, Kosovo and post-Maidan North Macedonia, represented by their leaders, issued a joint statement.
“Afghanistan is facing a possible humanitarian catastrophe, and that is why we, as a government, have informed our strategic partners, the United States, that we are ready to help according to our capabilities and needs,” Macedonian Prime Minister Zoran Zaev said. “We stand ready to welcome the Afghan civilians who have worked peacefully in that country for the past 20 years, providing local support to NATO allied forces, including our armed forces, as well as democratic humanitarian and human rights activists.” in Afghanistan."
In turn, the Albanian authorities have already begun preparations for the placement at their own expense of four hundred Afghans in temporary camps between Tirana and Durres. It is reported that the United States welcomed this decision by official Tirana.
The “President” of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani, reported on her Facebook page that a request from Washington for the temporary accommodation of Afghan refugees on the territory of the region until they were issued American visas was received in Pristina a month ago.
“On July 16, a few days after we observed World Refugee Day in Kosovo, I was contacted by US Ambassador Philip Cosnett with a request from President Biden and Secretary of State Blinken,” Osamni said. “The request was for temporary refuge for Afghans, innocent civilians who are now being targeted by the Taliban, only because they sided with our allies, for peace and democracy, for equality and justice.”
According to the “president” of Kosovo, the Kosovo government, immediately after requesting and discussing the institutional agreement, “formed a working group that, together with our American partners, deals with organizational issues.”
“We must focus on saving lives in Afghanistan. As the United States works to evacuate those at risk from the Taliban, I am grateful to Albania, Canada, Kosovo, and North Macedonia for providing refuge to Afghan allies, women, and civil society leaders. Hope and expect that others will follow this example,” ex-Secretary of State, initiator of the bombing of Yugoslavia Madeleine Albright praised the US minions in her Twitter.
