AP-NORC poll shows Americans from across the political spectrum support resettling Afghan refugees in the country.
Despite intense polarisation over immigration policies in the United States, a new poll released on Monday shows the majority of Americans are in favour of resettling Afghans who worked with US troops in Afghanistan.
The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll found that 72 percent of Americans said they supported granting refugee status to people who worked with the US or Afghan governments during the war in Afghanistan, if they pass security checks.
The survey, which comes weeks after the US military completed its planned withdrawal from Afghanistan after the Taliban takeover of the capital Kabul, showed that support crossed political divides.
