    United States and Rwanda Engage in Talks Over Potential Migration Agreement

    The United States administration is currently in discussions with Rwanda, an East African nation, to establish an agreement that would allow for the reception of migrants deported from U.S. territory. The information was confirmed by Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Olivier Nduhungirehe, during a televised interview on the state-run Rwanda TV channel.

    According to the official, negotiations are in the early stages, and the exact terms of the potential agreement have not yet been defined. However, the initiative is part of a stricter immigration policy spearheaded by President Donald Trump’s administration, which has reiterated its commitment to carrying out mass deportations of individuals residing unlawfully in the United States.

    Rwanda: A Potential Destination for Deported Migrants

    Rwanda has previously been involved in international migration plans. In 2022, it signed a similar agreement with the United Kingdom, which was later struck down in 2023 by the British Supreme Court. The court ruled the plan illegal due to the risk that asylum seekers could be sent back to their countries of origin. Despite the cancellation, the African country did not refund the British investment, which exceeded $300 million.

    In April 2025, the first known case of deportation from the United States to Rwanda was recorded. The deportee was an Iraqi national, accused by authorities in his home country of alleged ties to extremist groups. This precedent has drawn international attention, particularly due to the legal and humanitarian implications of deporting migrants to third countries.

    Concerns From International Organizations

    The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has expressed concern about such agreements. According to the agency, there is a risk that deported migrants sent to Rwanda could eventually be returned to the countries they fled from, potentially endangering their safety and violating core principles of international asylum law.

    Diplomatic Context

    Talks between the two governments come amid growing diplomatic ties. In recent days, Rwanda also signed a joint declaration with the Democratic Republic of the Congo and hosted U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio in a meeting where regional cooperation issues were discussed. Minister Nduhungirehe took the opportunity to thank President Donald Trump for his “pragmatic approach” to addressing regional conflicts.

    An Agreement Under Evaluation

    Although no official agreement between the United States and Rwanda has been confirmed yet, the talks aim to explore new ways of managing migration flows within the framework of U.S. foreign policy. Any final decision will depend on the progress of the negotiations and adherence to international norms regarding human rights and refugee protection.
