Uncertainty Has Led Many of Us To Depression, Say Afghans In Albania
About 20 Afghan families, who were relocated to Albania after the fall of the previous government, say that their asylum cases have not yet been addressed.
They have called for a faster process in handling their cases, noting that support from the Albanian government is decreasing.
Representatives of these families, in an open letter obtained by Afghanistan International, stated that they lack opportunities for work and education.
They said that this situation, along with the lack of attention to their immigration cases, has led to poor mental health and depression among Afghan families in Albania.
These families were evacuated from Kabul by some US organisations. Many Afghans who were relocated to Albania after the fall of the previous Afghan government have since been transferred to the US or Canada.
In their letter, these Afghans mentioned that obtaining residency in Albania is not a fair option for them, and being transferred to another third country would only prolong the processing of their immigration cases.
