Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Iran's Foreign Minister said at the meeting of the World Refugee Forum in Geneva: Iran's participation in this forum as the largest host of refugees in the world is a source of pleasure for me. The basic question regarding the issue of refugees is why only a few countries should be responsible for hosting the majority of refugees.
He added: The World Refugee Forum was created with the aim of strengthening global practical solidarity and mobilizing the necessary resources to assist the main hosts of displaced people. At the same time, no temporary solution can permanently solve the problem of refugees.
Iran's Foreign Minister stated: The High Commissioner for Refugees and the international community should make extra efforts to facilitate the return of refugees to their countries.
Abdullahian said: As you know, Iran has hosted the longest refugee situation for more than forty-five years, and now, after the developments in Afghanistan in 2021, my country hosts the largest displaced population in the world.
It should be mentioned that now about 5 million Afghan immigrants live in Iran. According to the officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in order to organize foreigners in this country, an office under the name of the National Immigration Organization has been established, and in the first step, they have considered the process of distributing smart cards to foreigners, including Afghans.
