Rwanda confirms the talks with the United States on the hiring of migrants

Rwanda is in the “initial phase” of the talks with the Trump administration to accept migrants expelled from the United States, said the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Eastern Africa Olivier Nduhungireh.

His comments come after the American secretary of state Marco Rubio declared last month that Washington was “actively looking for” for the countries that would take on “some of the most despicable human beings”.

Nduhungireh said that the talks were not “new for us”, since Rwanda had previously agreed to accept migrants deported from the United Kingdom.

However, the United Kingdom abandoned the regime, which had to face numerous legal changes, after Keir Starmer’s Labor government came in office last July.

Speaking with the Rwandan TV on Sunday, Nduhungireh said that the government was in the “spirit” of giving “another possibility to migrants who have problems all over the world”.

Nduhungireh added that the talks with the United States continued, and it was too early to predict their result.

Since came in office in January, the president of the United States Donald Trump has focused on accelerating the removal of migrants without documents, with the promise of “mass deportations”.

In February, El Salvador offered to take criminals deported from the United States, including those with US citizenship, and host them in his mega-mascia.

Salvadoren’s president Nayib Bukele said that his government would do it “in exchange for a commission”.
