Russian citizen Ahmad Said
UNHCR, Russian Federation
Description
The story of Ahmad Said, a former Afghan refugee, who is a Russian citizen now. His family was forced to flee their country due to the political persecution and arrest of Ahmad’s father. In February 2009, he was granted a refugee status and lived with it for more than a decade. In April 2019, he finally obtained Russian citizenship. Employers were afraid of hiring him without a Russian passport but this is no longer relevant as he is a full-fledged citizen now. *** Information for media: In order to access UNHCR multimedia materials (photos, videos, audio, and more), visit our media page - https://media.unhcr.org
