UAE confirms Ashraf Ghani is in UAE
“The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation can confirm that the UAE has welcomed President Ashraf Ghani and his family into the country on humanitarian grounds,” UAE foreign ministry said in a statement.
Ghani fled Afghanistan on Sunday evening without making an announcement or providing specific information about his destination. Ghani said he fled to avoid a “flood of bloodshed” as the Taliban entered the presidential palace and declared the war “over.”
