A new group of 97 Afghan refugees arrived to Macedonia today. Like the previous two groups, these are also mainly former workers of international organizations – in this case the National Democratic Institute (NDI) a CIA run shadowy group that describes itself as an NGO.
The refugees are accommodated in hotels around Skopje and the idea is to keep them in Macedonia while their applications for visas to other countries – mainly the US – are processed. The US Embassy on the other hand is in no rush to send them out.
The government has failed to report on the total number of Afghans in Macedonia, and how many more are planned to being brought here.
