Rwanda will accept up to 250 ‘migrants’ from United States

# Rwanda’s government says it will accept up to 250 migrants from the United States, without giving details of who could be included in the deal. Washington has been pushing a deportation drive, with President Donald Trump’s administration negotiating controversial arrangements to send people to third countries, among them South Sudan and Eswatini. It follows a cancelled agreement with Britain, under which Kigali would have received deported illegal migrants from the UK. Rwanda says it will approve each individual proposed by the US for resettlement.
