European Union members have not made any new promises to accept Afghan refugees almost two months following the Fall of Kabul To the Taliban. Despite promising to allow at-risk groups (especially women) to flee the country, European Union has yet to make any further pledges.
At a resettlement forum in Brussels on Thursday, the United Nations called on EU member states to resettle 42,500 Afghans over the next five years, a figure that EU officials called doable but wouldn’t commit to.
