Afghanistan, Gori: “Political asylum for Afghans without rights in the EU”

“There are 290,000 Afghans to whom Europe has denied residence permits in recent years: 30,000 women, 70,000 minors, 25,000 girls or boys. 230,000 are still on European soil, without rights. There is one thing we can do. do, immediately: grant them political asylum “. The mayor of Bergamo, Giorgio Gori of the Democratic Party, writes it on Twitter. Among the comments, there is also that of Claudio Borghi, a member of the League, who asks Gori: “Sorry, let me understand, so for you the urgency is not to save those who want to escape from Afghanistan but to regularize the 230 thousand who have they already been here, maybe for years? “.
