First Deportees from US Arrive in Rwanda Under Bilateral Agreement

First deportees arrive in Rwanda from the US

A group of 12 deported Rwandans arrived in Kigali, Rwanda, on a chartered flight from the United States yesterday. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security confirmed that the flight was the first of its kind under an agreement signed between the two countries in 2018, allowing for the deportation of Rwandan nationals residing illegally in the United States. The individuals deported were all convicted of various crimes in the U.S., including drug offenses, assault, and theft.

Rwanda’s government welcomed the deportees, emphasizing that they would be properly reintegrated into Rwandan society and provided with necessary support. The Rwandan authorities stated that they would work closely with the returnees to facilitate their reintegration and to ensure they have access to education, healthcare, and employment opportunities.

On the other hand, human rights organizations have expressed concerns about the consequences of these deportations, pointing out the potential challenges the returnees might face in readjusting to life in Rwanda. They have emphasized the need for comprehensive support systems to be in place to assist the deportees in rebuilding their lives and reintegrating into society effectively.

The United States government has not issued a formal statement regarding the deportation flight, but it is complying with the terms of the bilateral agreement with Rwanda.

The arrival of the first group of deportees marks a significant development in the immigration policies between the United States and Rwanda, raising questions about the implications for future deportations and the challenges faced by those being repatriated to their home country.
