The United States State Department has been negotiating with countries in Asia and Africa to take the 1100 Afghans who have been stranded on a former US military base in Qatar for over a year. They were evacuated by the Biden administration but now they can't enter the US as the Donald Trump administration barred entry for Afghans. The US wants to empty the former military camp As Sayliyah, and missed the last deadline of March 31, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The US is in negotiations with at least three countries, two in sub-Saharan Africa and one in Southeast Asia, to take in these Afghans, US officials confirmed to the Journal. Many of these Afghans helped the US in its war in Afghanistan.
