The UK Government to work with other countries to place Afghan refugees
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
In the long run it is not good for Afghan refugees to come to the UK. It is better to work with non governmental organisations and other countries to place them in a country with similar weather, culture and laws. President Trump made an agreement with Saudi Arabia to take Syrian fleeing from ISIS.
