## Resource

Afghan interpreters who risked everything to help the Dutch military are devastated after being denied permanent residency under a new EU migration pact—now stuck with temporary three-year permits. Despite their contributions, bringing them to the Netherlands before Kabul fell, and their children attending Dutch schools, they feel betrayed. The government says indefinite asylum is off the table, though naturalization may be an option—but critics call the process slow and unjust for those who sacrificed their safety and futures.
