Milan, 27 Nov. (LaPresse) – ‘First, we will bring the perpetrator of the shooting to justice, and then we will have to redouble our efforts to expel people who have no right to be in our country.’ This was stated by US Vice President J.D. Vance on X regarding the shooting of two National Guard members in Washington, both in critical condition, and the arrest of a 29-year-old Afghan citizen. "I remember that in 2021 I criticised Biden's policy of opening the doors to unvetted Afghan refugees. Friends sent me messages calling me racist. It was an enlightening moment," Vance added. Meanwhile, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services agency has announced that the processing of all immigration applications relating to Afghan citizens is suspended indefinitely, pending further review of security and screening protocols.
