Central European leaders are voicing concern over what they say is a potential migration rush from Afghanistan in the wake of U.S. and NATO withdrawal.

The Associated Press

Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis took it a step further to suggest that a “migration wave” from Afghanistan constitutes a “big threat.”The prime ministers of the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary and Slovakia - all EU and NATO members - gathered in Slovenia on Friday, just days after the Alpine Nations took over the EU's rotating presidency. The countries make up the so-called Visegrad Group, an informal body that aims at closer regional cooperation.

Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orban on Friday urged Central European countries to stick together on the issue of migration so that their voice is heard within the 27-member bloc.Orban and Slovenia’s right-wing Prime Minister Janez Jansa are close allies. Jansa has also recently faced EU scrutiny over concerns that his government has been curbing media and democratic freedoms in the traditionally liberal country.

At a joint press conference after the meeting, the officials praised their cooperation and pledged to support Slovenia's six-month tenure at the EU's helm.

We’ll all be back there soon enough! The taliban will start training terrorists to attack us and we’ll go back in to shut them down. It’s a vicious cycle!

If they had done a better job during the Crusades they wouldn’t be having these problems. History has consequences.

America’s longest war is ending in crushing defeatCasualties among ordinary Afghans were almost 30% higher last year than in 2001. America's withdrawal is a calamity for the people of Afghanistan If we couldn't solve the problem with war for the last 20 years, what makes you think the next 20 would be any better? Now, let's guess how high the casualties would be if the Americans would not have invaded Afghanistan (and Iraq...) in the first place. It's like we should have never been there at all. Idiots
