Taliban Exploiting Europe's Fears Over Migration
Original: The Taliban Are Using Europe’s Fear of Migrants to Their Advantage
Reporting by The New York Times argues that the Taliban are deliberately leveraging Europe's anxiety over migration to gain leverage, suggesting the group understands European governments' political sensitivity to new waves of asylum seekers from Afghanistan. The piece has been picked up by other outlets, feeding debate over how migration fears shape Western dealings with the Taliban and policy on Afghan refugees.
Why now: Renewed concern in Europe about Afghan migration and its influence on policy toward the Taliban has made the story timely.
