US EditionTrump says he will help Afghans stuck in the UAE
UNITED STATES, JUL 20 – Donald Trump offers aid to Afghan refugees detained in the United Arab Emirates amid plans to return some to Taliban control, while nearly 200,000 Afghans have resettled in the U.S., officials said.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump said he would 'try to save them, starting right now' for Afghan refugees in the UAE, despite ending protections earlier this year.
- In 2021, the UAE agreed to temporarily house Afghan evacuees as the Taliban ousted the U.S.-backed government, and earlier this year, President Donald Trump paused refugee resettlement and ended deportation protections for Afghans in the U.S.
- At the Abu Dhabi camp, 32 Afghan refugees, including women and children, remain while passports have been taken and Taliban are forcing them to 'self-deport', Just the News reports.
- To pause the deportations, U.S. officials are reaching out to UAE counterparts, as a family has been cleared and vetted since 2023.
- On July 20, 2025, Eric Daugherty said `once Trump starts applying pressure, the UAE will back off this idea`, while Democrats have urged restoring temporary protected status for Afghans.
