The EU does not want more Afghan refugees
The bloc intends to be contained by neighboring countries in Central Asia. The powerful despise the needy.
Orchestrated propaganda cannot hide that inhuman walls continue to be built. Nor that complicities are bought to avoid a new wave of migration. Refuge and asylum are rights to defend. Only a socialist world without borders can liquidate imperialist capitalist barbarism.
Horror in Kabul
North American imperialism and NATO suffered a severe blow and had to flee. With the Taliban in power, panic spread about retaliation. There were dramatic scenes that traveled around the world. Parents who gave their babies to unknown soldiers. Thousands of people crowded at Kabul airport and on the tarmac, trying to get on any plane. Some of them lost their livesfalling into the void from the landing gear to which they had desperately clung. Then theattack in which dozens of people died.

False promises
The collapse aroused feelings of solidarity towards the Afghan people, women and children. The bourgeois governments were forced to respond. From the hand of horror came lies.
They said they would not abandon those who wanted to leave to save their lives.. The closest collaborators were boarded on the first flights. Nevertheless, Then they warned that they could not take all the people who should. Thus the“concern for Afghans in danger”.
What success?
He 31 August the deadline that the Taliban gave to the Americans met, the UK and NATO to withdraw. When the withdrawal ended, the governments involved congratulated themselves on the"success" of an operation that left thousands of people left to their fate. And they dedicated themselves to buying complicities.
Recruiting gendarmes
Although the EU continues to talk about humanitarian solidarity, does not act accordingly. Its objective is to prevent a new wave of migration, howthe one of the year 2015. For this reason, European interior ministers issued a statement urging“strengthen capabilities” of Afghanistan's neighbors to host refugees. In exchange they would provide"Aid" economic for 600 million euros for“border control against illegal immigration and terrorism”.
The operation would include countries such as: Iran, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan that keep their borders closed. The European Commission would grant 300 additional millions to be distributed to refugees and 200 for direct help.
Far from welcome
A fraternal welcome in Europe does not appear on the horizon. While in Austria there are 46.500 Afghans seeking asylum, The government announced that it will continue with deportations. The German airlift stopped in 4.000 of the 40.000 people I would remove. The US government is negotiatingsend to 4.000 refugees to Colombia. The richest countries have shameful actions. The imperialist powers continue to build walls.
Solidarity
Against the barbarism of the Taliban and imperialism, We express our solidarity with the Afghan working people and women. With the migrants who in different countries mobilize demanding to be recognized as refugees and claim for their families. The governmentsThey have to break relations with the Taliban without aligning with the United States. All borders in the world must be opened to receive Afghans in need.
In the face of barbarism, socialism
In Afghanistan it was demonstrated once again that we should not place any trust in the imperialists, their governments and armies. The false promises they make are at the service of setting up intrigues, foment wars of expansion and plunder. Socialism in a world without borders is the only solution to defeat the barbarism of the exploiters, oppressors and fundamentalist fanatics.
