Fox News
French President Emmanuel Macron on Monday warned of a possible surge in migration out of Afghanistan into Europe in the wake of the Taliban takeover and promised that the European Union would come up with a "robust" plan to "protect ourselves" from the wave.
Macron spoke as European leaders scrambled to respond to the rapid takeover of Afghanistan, including Kabul, ahead of the planned U.S. withdrawal on Aug 31. It has raised fears that a new migration wave could soon hit the region. Macron said France, along with other European partners, will work on a "robust, coordinated and united response" to any new influx of migrants from Afghanistan.More Related News
