I know the easy card to say is well It’s just racism. But there has to be another reason on why so many countries are doing it. Are the countries just claiming they can’t afford it meaning it’s a financial issue to have so many immigrants? Is that a lot of the Afghans were not doing their immigration paperwork, Or not showing up to immigration appointments?

What are these countries claiming is happening as to why so many from Afghanistan are getting deported?

I mean, just because the US are doing something stupid doesn’t mean England and other countries need to.

These countries have to realize the long-term side effects here. I’m curious what are these countries claiming is the reason for these deportations?

    One big factor in pushbacks like this is the classification of the country in terms of refugee status. People coming from another country only pass as “refugees” if certain conditions are fulfilled in that country, like war, famine, human rights violations, femicide, etc. This was the cases for Afghanistan for a long time (and still is arguably) but Germany and other governments decided that the conditions arent so bad anymore and that people arent technically “refugees” now anymore and can be pushed back without having to fear for their lives. As soon as one government does it, others will follow so that could have created a seemingly sudden increase in deportations. Dont take my word for it tho, im not 100% sure what the current classification is and when it changed. Just trying to give you an idea of how this generally works.
