What's behind the UK's deportation deal with Rwanda? | DW News
The British government insists it will carry on with its plan to send unwanted asylum seekers to Rwanda despite widespread criticism. The UK wants to prevent migrants from coming to its shores through unauthorized routes, so it's threatening any such potential arrivals that they'll be expelled to Rwanda. In return, Rwanda is getting 150 million dollars and a chance to promote itself as a hospitable haven.
Rwanda is offering asylum seekers up to 5 years stay with access to education and support. Human rights groups say the UK is shunning its responsibility to grant protection to asylum seekers, sending them to a country with a questionable human rights record.

this is like when you give a homeless person food instead of cash and they get mad
Can't buy alcohol and cigarettes so they get mad.
It happens in India.
totally agree. if rwanda has space and willing let them have it
I lived in Rwanda. The weather is perfect, the streets are safe and clean and the economy is growing. There is lots to do.
As a tourist? Most places are wonderful as a visitor.
Well 50% of the population live on less than a dollar a day, densely populated 13M living on 12.6 million square Km. It is the fifth most densely populated country in the world. I guess for tourists it's a nice country to visit for gorilla tracking trips.
I guess as long as everyone isn't hacking each other up with machetes it's a wonderful place 😮
@@michaelhall7546 That ended July 17th, 1994. 28 years ago. If that’s all you know about the country, then you’ve missed a lot.
@@tangaz5819 I lived there for three years. I loved it everyday. The only downside now is the economy has grown so much there is a lot more air pollution then there use to be.
The problem is not Rwanda .. The problem is with this asylum seekers who are obsessed with Europe countries to most African citizens this is considered as an achievement..
Because Europe has a better quality of life. Its not a shock they would want to come here.
@Silver By better life you meant what? paycheck to paycheck life or the broken health insurance system or the life of living accumulating credit score?? There is nothing as better life that you guys have They lied and you believed.
yes, because its a business..
wait... wait...It's UK responsibility.. what? who told them to leave their country? who is paying to keep them in the UK? tax payers?
You do know that an asylum seeker is fleeing their country because of torture or fear of death. They can’t go to their governments and that’s why they flee. Most come here because they have family here and because due to the past and the British empire, English happens many peoples second language and most likely their nations official language.
Due to decades of Europe’s conquests it kinda is considered this is UK fault to begin with…
@@tangaz5819 i do know what it is... but you can't force a country to take resposibilities because you are fleeing... individuals are responsible for their own actions, if your asylum is denied look somewhere else, no one is responsible for you buddy.
Right. The taxpayers don’t want to pay for other people until they take of their own. Like health care workers. If it was just a few people they would try but when lots and lots of people it’s asking too much. So stay home and invest in your own country with the thousands of dollars you are paying these smugglers.
An excellent example of European African cooperation.
More like ‘take our millions, you need them… But, only if you do us a favor’.
@@kayee7938 Those millioms will otherwise be spent on these freeloaders, better to pay someone who is being responsible and helping us solve a problem.
@@magatism they aren't solving anyones problem. They are just lefting them in the middle of africe in exchange of money.
@@fallenknight2580 If lifting them to Europe can solve their problem, maybe lifting them to Africa will make the problem disappear altogether
@@kayee7938 there is no free meal! Nobody would give u somthing if there is nothing in return

The Danes are negotiating the same deal with Rwanda.
Initially, I was against the idea. Seeing the infrastructural arrangements that Rwanda has made to accommodate these asylum seekers, I cannot but be happy and giddy.
We are unconscious when we are asleep or fainted. When we are unconscious, we have no thoughts, no emotions, and cannot see the world. When we are conscious, we know everything. Consciousness is thoughts, emotions, and everything in the world. This consciousness is one. Will consciousness be split in two? Consciousness is not divisible. Do you feel two consciousnesses when talking to a friend? Consciousness is felt only as one. Consciousness is one. I am Conscious and I am the World. Gospel of Thomas "For many of the first will be last, and will become a single one." Jesus said, "Two will recline on a couch; one will die, one will live." "For this reason I say, if one is whole, one will be filled with light, but if one is divided, one will be filled with darkness." Jesus said, "Why do you wash the outside of the cup? Don't you understand that the one who made the inside is also the one who made the outside?" Jesus said, "I am the light that is over all things. I am all: from me all came forth, and to me all attained. Split a piece of wood; I am there. Lift up the stone, and you will find me there." A [person said] to him, "Tell my brothers to divide my father's possessions with me." He said to the person, "Mister, who made me a divider?" He turned to his disciples and said to them, "I'm not a divider, am I?"
Yeah thatll definitely happen. Governments never lie. Remember how much the NHS is being saved because of brexit for instance? lmao you are a fool
Britain IS a Sovereign National Territory. Stop interfering in British internal affairs. All we hear is “I want this…. I want I want I want”. What about the British Public? Do we have wants and needs also or do we get ignored as always?
So is China.
Well said. Fed up with the world dictating to UK and telling us what we can and can not do. UK does not belong to the rest of the world.
Money money money that's all it is along with brushing the problem for the UK under the carpet
So a win - win deal, what's the problem?
I don't hear any better ideas being put forth. I'd like to ask these vocal opponents, like Filippo Grandi, how many asylum seekers they've taken into their home?
if Rwanda is really willing to take people and provide for that with a relatively small bit of compensation then i don't see why not. the point of asylum is to provide safety to people, not their choice of destination.
The Rwanda plan is the best thing Boris has ever done since he started government! The prince doesn't know that because he lives in a bubble full of luxuries while the regular British people are the ones sufferings the consequences of the illegal immigration!!!
Send the queen to Rwanda, she’s a immigrant
@@adamuk8199 she probably goes every few years..
Human rights abuse in Rwanda? That's more than 2 decades ago Rwanda is not a democracy that's right but it wants to be a business hub like Singapore. A country doesn't need to be a full democracy (which many western countries aren't) to be a desirable country. Still Rwanda is quite poor and can only show of it's high GDP growth at the moment.
What do you expect from a west European country?
Congratulations 🎉 Britian. May God bless Rwanda
Ruwanda probably one of the safest places in the world.
Literally might get into a war with the Congo.
@@franzjoseph1837 it's currently one of the safest in the world. Safer than most of the West. Look it up.
@@franzjoseph1837 the congo is at war with itself 24/7 and can barely fed it's army, Rwanda in contrast has really bounced back after the genocide in the 90s and has become a decently run and rapidly growing country.
@@cageybee7221 yes by becoming a western proxy in the Congo. Rwanda has very little natural resources in comparison to the Congo so obviously western powers use this resources poor country to do it bidding in a resource rich country right next door. Rwanda benefits from western loans, investments, advertising, and grows as a consequence. They also need the resources in the Congo to further develop n eventually industrialize. So idk man......
@Plutoman did u say more powerful 😂😂
Rwanda is in it for the cultural enrichment and it's just wrong to deny them the opportunity.
yeah :(
Honey it’s not the cultural enrichment that’s the problem, it’s the poor planning of executing such a delicate plan that’s the problem. This will fall back on rawanda and then boom more problem for yet another African nation. The UK don’t careeeee why can’t you see this?! They can’t even get their healthcare workers the wage they deserve and are drowning in debt!! The rise in homelessness is insaneeee and you think they can just send other people to other countries…safelyyy?!!! You have NO IDEA WHAT THIS GOVERNMENT IS UP TO.
😂
This is pretty good deal I think (I'm not from UK)
You have absolutely no ideaaa what this means. This has not been planned strategically enough and lives will be at stake. This is how a mark is left where the future will suffer for rawanda and they can not see this because the UK don’t care. ☹️
It looks like Rwanda is looking for a chance of redemption (with the genocide in all). With the UK not wanting asylum seekers they got their chance to improve their reputation. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
Very
if they don't want to go to Rwanda then they can stay in France
Hote... Hostel Rwanda refined
Looks like Rwanda will see some cultural enrichment. Everyone should benefit from multiculturalism.
It is not a British problem. The nations that reject their people should be the focus attention.
you cannot help everyone
This ideal is so right.
Britain is finally accepting the benefits of Chinese investment in Rwanda making it the economically vibrant country it is today !
Thanks for this report. I have been wondering why Rwanda would agree to this. Great journalism!
The government is sitting on a report on what happened in Rotherham and Rochdale and other major cities in the UK. It knows the profiles of the types of me. Who committed crimes against young vulnerable girls. This report needs to be released now.
I do not hear what Charles Ndushabandi is saying. We probably need subtitles here.
Works better when you turn on the auto-generated subtitles. Try that.
The BBC News has an article on this issue today, interviewing people who were sent to Rwanda by Israel fifteen years ago, boasting that they are "now in Europe anyway." They are not in Israel!
Bye
keep it up 🇬🇧
The Sudanese refugee doesn't say anything against Rwanda. He's not happy with his Audi, he wants a Benz thanks
so many Rwanadese are in need of decent housing and scholarships, it would be interesting to know what the money can do for the country.
I for one don't really get how assilum seekers have more rights than the people that they ask assilum from.... If I don't want a person in my house, why should I be forced to take him in......Because of human rights? This conversation is so biased and dumb, I don't know why it hit the news.....
Isn't this why the UK isn't in the EU?
You mean the European Union ? The Brexit ?
they are not seeking safety they are seeking prosperity at the cost of others
£120 million signing fee - bribe.
Hostel look pretty clean… dude is playing pool, no wars etc, listen people need to start taking advantage of life, Rwanda is safe, there are opportunities, make a life and I promise you won’t even want to come to the Uk
Why keep looking around?
The hostel looks nice. Not everyone will end up staying. It is a very expensive deal though and I see why some in the UK rejects it.
This is a win win situation.
7 people on the canceled trip? 😲😲
it was about 50 to start with challenges in the UK courts removed most of them, It was the first flight so these are just the expected legal challenges once they have been dealt with the flights will run like clockwork
Honestly britts how dare you? Learn about colonialism and neocolonialism and look straight into the African people and tell them that your multicorparations stole their land and economy but they aren't allowed to have a better live outside of their country
Rwanda is like the Hawaii of africa that’s a great deal
Are there long coastlines and beaches in Rwanda? What makes them the Hawaii of Africa?
I think this is a good deal even uk has a lousy medical system plus they are getting education.
...money
There ia an introduction from me, and I wish you success always, growing. looks like he's giving a speech by emcee. Greetings from me😊👌🤝
Lol you can't tell human being to go here or there but he think he is entitled to choose where to go.
The UK takes Rwandans on a 1:1 basis in return. Never mind that part.
yes but Rwandans are culturaly speaking very close to the WEST
on the other hand...the BALLANCE is important too... Rwanda should not be depopulated either ...
@@kukulroukul4698 yes the genoice and people murder is really close!
@@kukulroukul4698 Are they really though? Most African countries have very different views on how things should be when it comes to women, religon and LGBT.
@@silver4831 very different views but at their HOME in Zambia for example. Usualy the africans are rarely trying to impose their beliefs onto europeans WHILE on european ground
7 illegals in a plane???Waste of money !!Get it full !!!
I lived in Rwanda from four years from. Beautiful country orderly. But the west should stop with unnecessary wars like Israel/Hamas and Ukraine if they wish to stop migrantion. Over 80% of the world live under 1 dollar a day, what do you expect !
Check mate from UK...
Why are they seeking asylum in the 1st place ?
without it they are stuck in France with the french
It’s the snails
Well done Britain! Half of Africa can't live in UK on ordinary tax payers expenses .. Pretty simple!
But you could live on our lands for centuries and steal from us too! You haven’t seen anything yet! The evil that your forefathers committed against humanity will come back and hit you hard! In the face of course! Tell your dishonest leaders, schemers and arm robbers to take their cruel hands off Africa! Then we can stop coming to your useless country! European countries built on our blood and toil! Everything you have is as a result of our pain! Don’t ever forget that! Rogues
Whats that you don't want to get sent to Rwanda, Don't enter the UK illegally then.... seems simple enough to me !!
And they have a great record on etnec clensing
You mean what happened in Europe 70 years ago?
When did we start talking about Germany?
A bargain for the UK at twice the price.
Rwanda is basically singapore of Africa
No its not
Selling your self for money! This what Rwanda is doing! Very disturbing this is!
Maybe they could try anthrax
A boot.
Rwanda it good for them because Paul Kagame will punish them if they start bs
From Africa but not Arab countries or the Balkan
Denmark also wants todo this. Are we forgetting about the genocide that took place previously.
we are definetely NOT !
Very true
are we forgetting about the genocide that took place in Germany previously?
You want to cite a genocide that happened at Rwanda, over two decades ago, to justify why they cannot take asylum seekers? Such a joke!
@@Leinard.theSage exactly
Real madness my brother, you talking and your government take care of your country men and stop useless deal because of testy and hunger for revenues

Rwanda Better place to stay than uk
Desperate times require desperate measures… unregulated immigration is unsustainable. Europe cannot and will not tolerate unlimited numbers of people coming to avail of the more developed systems which Europeans have created.
The UK hasn’t been shining ☀️ lately
Rwanda getting that bag 😁
Oh you have no idea what’s coming their way….this is a disaster for their future.
I dont know how much of a dictature Rwanda actualy is ... I was not fully convinced by the last documentary ived watched years ago... I WISH so much luck and prosperity for THE rwandan PEOPLES(not leadership) Also : Congo should realy calm down themselves a bit ... THEY ARE SO ANNOYING ! :(
Great idea!
Rwanda knows how to handle them...
Needs captions because I can not understand the reporter. If this is important information then we should understand it. In addition if you elect a pro-Russian leader named Boris who wants to destroy liberal democracy this is what you get.
The problem is we didn't elect Boris / Conservatives. They got a plurality of the popular vote but our crappy voting system distorts results. So the supermajority voted for not conservatives but conservatives still got a healthy majority of the seats.
Do you know ? Everything is leela of God in India 😅😂🤣😃🤪🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Who cares !
They might be trained as a mercenaries by the British.
I think this policy can be improved, one way is to provide alternative destinations eg Australia. There are countries in need of the human resource and could benefit from such a policy
I think considering Australia has already implemented such a policy, they are not on board with that..
The money will go to corruptor!

good job uk!
Are realising why we paying lots of tax and national insurance now as 20million is a lot of money Work you people in Uk.
S/O to 🇬🇧! 🙌 I wish we could do the same in the in the 🇺🇸!
dont vote left wing then... as a country that is. Voting left is voting for an open door policy.

I have no idea what that Rwanda man says. I could not understand anything he says.
What is the World's Criminal, the UK Anglos' up to?
UK treating people as if they’re trash. In past times ethics and respect for life would’ve prevaled, and such propositions wouldn’t have even left the cabinet meeting.Asylum seekers are precisely looking for opportunities in countries that are supposedly respectful of human rights. That’s why they’ve chose to go to the UK. This is basically a sentence without trial. Yet there’s countless of vacant unskilled and low skilled jobs that Brits aren’t even considering to fulfil and that are contributing to the massive gap in the economy. I guess the only type of immigration allowed in the UK is for bankers and multimillionaires … but I wonder why in the world they’d go to the UK.
No. Outsiders seeing too much internet and wanting to make U.K. trash!
Its so pathatic to see so many thugs mentality comments
it would be even MORE pathetic to see you with the broken head in my neighborhood... :S
You mean that you welcome them in your country? They can sleep on your couch?
Who are these reporters? They can't speak correctly??
