Hungary to launch Afghanistan rescue operation
Hungary will launch an operation in Kabul to evacuate Hungarians and their Afghan helpers, a state secretary of the foreign ministry said on Wednesday.
Â
The journey home is already ensured for 26 Hungarians who will be “brought back to Europe within the foreseeable future”, Levente Magyar told a press conference. “The number of Hungarians the foreign ministry knows to be currently in Afghanistan is so small they can all be fitted into a single airplane,” he added.
Â
Besides Hungarians, the government is also ready to help Afghan citizens who had helped the Hungarian troops in the country,
as well as their families, “a few hundred people … we know who they are, and they are in mortal danger, it is our moral duty to help them,” he said.

At the same time,
“it is out of the question” that Hungary should participate in a “general redistribution” of Afghan refugees
and accept them into the country, he said.

In the wake of the allied forces’ “irresponsible withdrawal” from Afghanistan, millions of Afghans could leave their homeland, Magyar warned. Hungary will not yield to migration pressure and will keep its southern borders closed, he said.
 The allied forces led by the United States have “found themselves in a humiliating, hitherto unimmaginable situation,” Magyar said. After a twenty-year confict claiming 250,000 lives, it is now “up to the goodwill of the Taliban whether they can rescue their own citizens and the Afghans helping them,” he said.

Magyar called a recent meeting of European Union foreign ministers on the situation “disappointing”.
“Although Europe could have made a serious impact on the events, it merely watches paralysed and issues lamenting statements on the infringement on human rights,” he said.
 Regarding details of the operation, Magyar said Afghanistan-related tasks are fulfilled by cargo planes starting from the airport in Papa, western Hungary. The details of the operation are under NATO command and are confidential, he said.

America created this mess in Afghanistan, so they should take the responsibility of housing all the refugees
The left wing government of the US and incompetence at the highest levels of the government.
Intelligence and experience have no place in a quota driven position in the government on every level. Race gender sexual preference are highest priority unless you have connections.
The media helps prop up the incompetence. Thing were bad enough before the latest act of stupity from president on down. Anyone who has been to Afghanistan knows what the situation was like.
The top two generals leading military should be shot for their stupity. The same week – Trump supporters were listed as the biggest threat to the US along with those who refuse COVID shots. You can’t make this stuff up. The biggest military in world for over 70 years is becoming a joke along with people at the highest levels of every agency in the goverment with zero amount of decency and integrity.
