No Afghan refugee exodus yet but ‘massive displacement’ possible: UN


GAZIANTEP: The Taliban victory in Afghanistan has not led to a dramatic refugee exodus but the country urgently needs humanitarian aid to prevent economic collapse and major upheaval, the UN refugee agency chief said. “In reality, we have not seen at this point large movements of Afghan people towards the borders of the country,” Grandi told Reuters. If those things collapse then we have a massive humanitarian crisis on our hands and most likely massive displacement as well,” Grandi said. Asked how many people may flee in the event of economic collapse, Grandi said it was “anybody’s guess at that point”. “I told Turkey, as I told everyone else, that I’m not a big fan of walls,” Grandi said.
