Germany Proposes Deporting Migrants to Rwanda Using UK-Funded Facilities

Sep 5, 2024, 03:02 PM

Germany's migration commissioner has proposed a plan to deport migrants who arrive illegally in the European Union through its borders with Belarus to Rwanda. The proposal includes the use of asylum facilities in Rwanda that were previously prepared for the UK's now-abandoned deportation deal and paid for by the UK. This measure is part of Berlin's broader efforts to restrict the influx of refugees into the bloc.
