Illegal trips; not only a failure but a tragedy
Another deadly incident resulting in the death of eighteen Afghan citizens in Bulgaria hurt the heart of their families and caused their relatives and friends to mourn. Fresh media reports said that 18 Afghans who planned to reach Europe through Bulgaria have been found dead inside a truck due to lack of oxygen. The heartbreaking incident happened three months ago, after 18 Afghans trying to reach Europe illegally through Bulgaria, where a closed-gate truck carrying them run out of oxygen. Early Wednesday morning, the bodies of the dead have been transferred to Kabul and handed over to their families, the country’s Ministry of Foreign reported. According to the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the transfer of the bodies was delayed due to sanctions on the banking system. The shocking incident once again recalled the death of dozens of Afghans drowned in the seas, tens shot dead by border guards, while thousands of others were deported brutally by the hosting countries’ security officials. During the past 20 years of the so-called republic governments, the security situation was not tolerable, forcing thousands of Afghans to leave their home and seek safe shelter and work abroad. But the security situation is now secure and the economic condition is relatively good. So the countrymen should avoid illegal immigration and stay working for the development of their country. On the other side, efforts by the Islamic Emirate officials are underway to kick off thousands of development projects and help thousands of jobless Afghans get employed. Currently, transparent appointment processes are ongoing all over the government administrations and most of educated youths are expected to get hired. Afghanistan, under the new Islamic system, is now a paved ground for work and investment and all affairs are being implemented gradually. Relations between the Islamic Emirate and regional and world countries are improved and efforts are underway to further expand the relations that would help the Islamic system be recognized internationally. So, the entire countrymen are advised to avoid illegal trips as they are full of dangers and threats. The Afghan youths should not follow the tricks and false promises of human traffickers as they are not in favor of serving their countrymen but are just thinking on how to endanger a life and grab money. Most importantly, their relatives who are living abroad and worried about the worse economic condition of them inside the country, should help them financially until the economic condition of the country gets better, instead of encouraging them to leave their country through illegal trips and or immigration. We once again call on the international community to help the Afghan assets released, because most of the Afghan economic calamities originate from the cash blockage of the country’s central bank by the United States. Releasing the Afghan assets would help the country successfully run economic projects and help millions of Afghans get employed, remain in their homeland and work for the development of their country
