Iran’s department of interior ministry has banned Afghan
migrants from residing in nine provinces in Iran, other provinces being under
consideration for a similar ban.
Restriction and bans on
Afghan people residing in Iran includes:
Travel bans on the use of public transportation
Ban on marriage between Iranians and Afghans
No legal recognition of children born out of a mixed
marriage
Ban on Afgan children attending and or mixing with Iranian
children
Ban on employment opportunities and social benefits
Afghans are forbidden from using social recreational areas
such as city parks
Afghan people must use a separate line to purchase bread
In the province of Mazandaran, the authorities are prohibiting
Afghan people to reside, work or to purchase basic life necessitates such as
food!
The Islamic Republic of Iran’s laws and state policies
towards the Afghan people residing in Iran is both racist and inhumane! The
institutional and social discrimination against the Afghan people must stop. It
is the human right of all Afghan people to have equal access to employment and
to all of society’s benefits accessible to Iranians residents.
The Islamic Republic is attempting to blame the Afghan
people for the social and economic insecurities that are prevalent in Iran! The
Islamic regime is using racism and discrimination towards the Afghan people to
create divisions within the working-class and to drive wages down. The Islamic
regime of Iran wants nothing less than infighting within the working people in
order to continue its stranglehold on power and to justify the social poverty
experienced by millions of people. Many Afghan people have been residing in
Iran for several generations and have been subject to the Islamic regime’s
ruthless repression like all other residents.
An important part of our struggle and fight against the
Islamic Regime is to stop the discrimination and racism against the Afghan
people in every corner of Iranian society: at home, on the streets, at the
shops, at school, and at work!
