According to the information of the Austrian Prime Minister’s office, Nehmer and Sonak have exchanged views on British asylum programs several times in recent weeks. Nehmer sees this demand in line with several European leaders such as Giorgia Meloni, the Prime Minister of Italy or Mette Fredriksson, the Prime Minister of Denmark. Currently, European legal standards practically do not allow for asylum procedures in third countries. In addition to immigration, current geopolitical issues will also be discussed in this meeting.
One of Sunak’s main promises in the election campaign is to prevent refugees from entering the UK through the English Channel with measures. It was a deterrent.
According to the new law, immigrants who enter the UK without documents must be deported to Rwanda. After many debates, the British Parliament approved this controversial plan at the end of April. Meanwhile, the British Supreme Court ruled that Rwanda is not a safe third country.
Sunak and his Conservative Party are under pressure in London. Voters are turning away from this party in droves. Therefore, as a last show of power, Sunak clings to the Rwandan plan and does not abandon it. Apply for asylum before entering this country. Instead, they should be able to be deported to a third country like Rwanda. An agreement made for this purpose stipulates that they will then apply for asylum there.
The British Conservative government wants to prevent refugees from crossing the English Channel in this way. Britain’s High Court declared the refugee treaty with Rwanda illegal a few months ago, but Parliament nevertheless approved the plan at the end of April. Critics accuse the East African country of human rights violations.
This plan is, of course, very controversial in England and internationally, but London has not given up on it: the British Conservative government wants Send approximately 5,700 migrants to Rwanda this year. In total, tens of thousands of immigrants in this country are at risk of deportation under this plan.
According to the new model, asylum applications are now reviewed by the Rwandan government in Kigali. If accepted, the refugees will have the right to stay in this East African country and cannot return to England.
