Und jetzt stell dir das mal vor: #Dobrindt verhandelt ernsthaft mit den #Taliban. Nicht über Frieden. Nicht über Menschenrechte. Sondern darüber, #Frauen zurückzuschicken. An das terroristische Regime in #Afghanistan!

#Regimegegner haben Angst, dass die #Taliban bald Zugang zu der zentralen Datenbank bekommen, in der zehntausende Passanträge, Ehe- und Geburtsurkunden sowie andere sensible Daten von Afghaninnen und Afghanen in Deutschland UND anderen Ländern gespeichert sind.
Was sind das nur für Menschen, die sowas entscheiden. 😟 😤 😢

Afghanische Vertretung in Bonn: Ein Taliban als Generalkonsul
Seit knapp einem Monat kontrollieren die Taliban alle diplomatischen Vertretungen Afghanistans in Deutschland. Viele Exil-Afghanen sind entsetzt, manche aber suchen auch den Kontakt mit den Radikalislamisten. Von Peter Hornung.

#Trump admin makes *misleading* case in high-stakes #asylum hearing
#HomelandSecurity asked a judge to #deport a man to #Afghanistan, where he expects the #Taliban to kill him. What happens next could affect thousands.
To make its case, the #DHS did not accuse him of any crime or disloyalty or act of terrorism. Instead, attorneys argued that Afghanistan — a country #US forces rescued him from in 2021 — is safe for his return.
The man, whom WaPo is identifying as “H” because of concern for his safety, has sought #asylum because he so publicly supported the #UnitedStates’ cause in #Afghanistan. Before fleeing, he worked for a US-based nonprofit & attended an American university in Kabul.
To undermine his claim, government attorneys argued that the #Taliban have allowed those institutions to continue to operate—clear signs, they claimed, that his past would not endanger him if he was deported.
Both institutions, however, have fundamentally transformed since H left them, WaPo has found. The nonprofit’s #US headquarters closed years before the country collapsed, & its former office in #Afghanistan is now under strict #Taliban supervision. The university, meanwhile, no longer provides in-person classes, & its campus was seized by the regime, which installed its own school.

Onvoorstelbaar:
Minister Van Weel wil Taliban voor de rechter, maar blijft Afghaanse vrouwen terugsturen.
De één is een 79-jarige vrouw die volgens de IND onvoldoende 'verwesterd' is. Daardoor zou ze minder moeite hebben om zich te schikken naar de strenge regels van de Taliban.
