Britain’s King Charles III has signed controversial legislation allowing the government to transfer all migrants and refugees who arrive in Britain illegally to Rwanda.
The move comes after the UK Parliament approved the legislation earlier this week, despite strong opposition from human rights groups and many MPs.
Key provisions of the law:
This law allows the British government to transfer all migrants and refugees who arrive illegally to Rwanda. The cost of the transfer program is funded by the UK government and is estimated to reach £600 million. Rwanda will be responsible for processing the asylum applications of relocated migrants.
Migrants whose asylum claims are accepted have the right to remain in Rwanda, while those who are rejected are sent back to the UK.
