UNHCR, Russian Federation
Description
Latifa came to Moscow from Afghanistan in 2006 to reunite with her family. Her husband, an Afghan who studied engineering in the USSR, had already been granted refugee status in Russia. She couldn't stay in her homeland any longer — her life was in danger. Latifa and her family members received Russian citizenship in 2011. According to Latifa, the Russian passport changed her life: "Without documents, it feels like you're in prison." *** Information for media: In order to access UNHCR multimedia materials (photos, videos, audio, and more), visit our media page - https://media.unhcr.org
