One year after the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban and the haphazard western withdrawal, some Afghans are still waiting for their visas to the US in the unlikeliest of places.
Nine months after they were evacuated from Kabul to Albania, a group of Afghan refugees this week protested against the long wait for their visas to the US. They were among some 2,400 evacuees Albania took in following the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan. According to media reports, some of the 900 Afghans who remain in Albania could be evicted from the hotels where they are staying.
