University of Portsmouth Students’ Union to stand in solidarity with Afghanistan

The Students' Union must lobby the University to ensure that those students affected by the crisis in Afghanistan are able to complete their studies in a safe and constructive environment. This includes Afghan students, students that may have anxiety due to being from a neighbouring country, as well as students who may have had friends or family fight in the Afghanistan war.
