Rwanda's Commitment
Rwanda will continue to accept illegal migrants even if Britain decides to leave the European Court of Human Rights, as revealed exclusively by Trending In The News.
Backing from Kigali
The Kigali government has given Rishi Sunak the green light to follow through on his threat to withdraw from the ECHR if its judges interfere with removal flights.
Assurance from Rwanda
Rwanda's intervention dismisses concerns that Britain's action could jeopardize the immigration scheme between the two nations.
UK's Border Security
Rishi Sunak expressed readiness to leave the Strasbourg court in order to halt small boat crossings, prioritizing border security over foreign court membership.
Rwanda's Response
Rwanda's spokeswoman reassured that the partnership with Britain will continue regardless of ECHR membership, emphasizing the importance of upholding international law.
Implications and Reactions
While the UK would still need to adhere to its obligations under international law, leaving the ECHR would not impact the asylum scheme that is set to launch soon.
Conservative MPs supported the PM's stance, while some Labour MPs expressed concerns over the potential implications on human rights commitments.
