The instability of Afghanistan and Refugee Issues: Focusing on Pakistan and Iran

The Taliban has ruled Afghanistan since the withdrawal of the United States. However, the inside of Afghanistan is suffering from security, economy, health, and women s rights problems, and this has caused many Afghans to leave their homeland and become refugees. Pakistan and Iran, which share long borders with Afghanistan, are concerned about the mass influx of refugees due to religious and ethnic similarities in addition to geographical proximity. In particular, the activities of armed members who are likely to be mixed among refugees are considered security issues. Therefore, this paper examines the reality of the refugee problem caused by instability in Afghanistan and analyzes the realistic concerns Pakistan and Iran are experiencing. Accordingly, it emphasizes that the problem of refugee security is not just a problem in Afghanistan and neighboring countries, but a problem that all the international community must strive to prevent and solve together.
