A new obstacle to the implementation of Sunak’s anti-immigration plan

According to the report of the international group Tasnim news agency, citing the German newspaper Tagus Spiegel, the government British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak wants to send refugees to Rwanda, an East African country. But the argument that Rwanda is a safe third country has become very controversial in this country.

The British government must now face new questions about its plan to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda regardless of their origin. The Observer weekly reported on Sunday, quoting documents from the Ministry of Interior, that several people from the opposition of this East African country have received asylum in Britain in recent months due to persecution.

The conservative government of Rishi Sunak now wants to declare Rwanda a safe third country by law. Arguing for this may now become more difficult for him.

According to the British government, the planned move is designed to prevent migrants from crossing the English Channel. Accordingly, migrants who entered the country irregularly should in the future be sent to Rwanda without their asylum applications being examined and instead apply for protection there. There is no plan for them to return to England.

But this plan was declared illegal by the Supreme Court of England. Supreme Court judges have concerns about the refugee process in Rwanda. This court believes that it cannot be ruled out that those seeking protection will be deported from there to their countries of origin. The government wants to declare these concerns illegal. This bill will be examined in the second reading in the upper house on Monday.

The second house of the British Parliament recently decided against this new asylum law, Rishi Sunak, British Prime Minister. Members of the House of Lords voted on a motion not to sign the relevant treaty with Rwanda, delaying the vote on the bill. Sunak had previously asked the House of Lords not to oppose the wishes of the elected House of Commons. The British House of Commons approved the asylum law last week.

Before that, despite the negative vote of the British Supreme Court and many criticisms from the opposition, the British House of Commons approved this controversial law to deport immigrants to Rwanda.

Opponents of this project, such as the United Nations Refugee Agency, are angry with this British law. Critics believe that there is no legal route for asylum seekers to enter this country. The plans also violate obligations to protect refugees, according to critics. The fact that the government wants to place itself above court decisions by this law also violates the separation of powers. According to critics, Britain has already paid hundreds of millions of pounds to Rwanda without anyone get there The Labor Party is talking about a political trick. According to critics, the Rwanda pact was created by then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson to distract from the “Partygate” scandal.
