The head of humanitarian NGO the Norwegian Refugee Council is accusing the international community of turning its back on the Afghan people since the Taliban returned to power in 2021. Jan Egeland is just back from a long visit to the country, where he focused particularly on the thousands of Afghans who are being sent back to Afghanistan every day from neighbouring Iran and Pakistan. He says both countries claim they can no longer continue to host Afghan communities after decades of support. But Egeland says those returning are facing a life of abandonment. He spoke to us in Perspective.
