Quatre-vingts anciens employés afghans de l’OTAN, ainsi que leurs familles, sont actuellement réinstallés en Norvège. Ce mardi (5 octobre 2021), ces personnes ont quitté les installations temporaires dans lesquelles elles séjournaient au Kosovo pour rejoindre la Norvège à bord d’un vol commercial affrété au départ de Pristina. Des soldats de la Force de réaction de l’OTAN, à haut niveau de préparation, leur ont fourni une assistance et un soutien, notamment en aménageant des logements individuels et familiaux, des réfectoires, un centre médical et un centre de soins dentaires, des salles de réunion, des zones récréatives pour adultes et enfants, et des lieux de culte.

« Nous sommes ici à Pristina pour assurer le transport de 80 réfugiés afghans ayant des liens avec l’OTAN », suite à « une demande faite en ce sens par l’OTAN », a déclaré Alan Aguillar, haut conseiller pour la Police de l’immigration de la Norvège. « Nous avons mené des enquêtes de sécurité et procédé à la vérification des identités, et nous sommes en train de finaliser les modalités du transfert de ces réfugiés vers la Norvège. Ces personnes seront d’abord transférées pour quelques semaines dans un camp, où le processus d’intégration en Norvège se poursuivra. Elles seront ensuite réinstallées un peu partout dans le pays. Nous ferons tout notre possible pour les aider à se construire un avenir et une nouvelle vie en Norvège », a-t-il ajouté. « La coopération et la coordination avec l’OTAN sur le terrain ont été bonnes ; tout s’est bien passé, du début à la fin », a-t-il également souligné.

Si le processus de réinstallation se termine pour certains Afghans, il se poursuit pour d’autres. Près de 2 000 Afghans ayant travaillé pour l’OTAN, ainsi que leurs familles, ont été évacués de Kaboul en août, dans le cadre de la plus vaste mission d’évacuation de l’histoire de l’OTAN. L’OTAN a travaillé jour et nuit pour coordonner les évacuations ; le haut représentant civil de l’OTAN, l’ambassadeur Stefano Pontecorvo, et ses collaborateurs ont d’ailleurs joué un rôle clé à ce niveau. En deux semaines, plus de 120 000 personnes ont été évacuées à bord de centaines d’avions mis à disposition par les Alliés. Des soldats américains, britanniques, turcs et norvégiens ont joué un rôle clé dans la sécurisation de l’aéroport et le bon fonctionnement d’un hôpital de campagne, et environ 800 soldats de l’OTAN ont assumé des fonctions essentielles comme les ravitaillements et les communications.
