Some countries have offered Afghans safe haven, but others are intent on fortifying borders. Pakistan to keep refugees close to border In June, Prime Minister Imran Khan said Pakistan would seal its border with Afghanistan in the event the Taliban took control. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government said 5,000 people would be resettled in the UK within the first year of the programme, which has been compared with a previous scheme for Syrian refugees. Australia says ‘no plans’ on Afghanistan refugees Australia said on Wednesday it had no plans to allow in tens of thousands of Afghan refugees fleeing the Taliban, citing security concerns. Albania temporarily hosts 300 refugees, at US request Albania’s government has also accepted Washington’s request to temporarily take in Afghan refugees seeking visas to enter the US.
