UK Foreign Secretary James Cleverly and Rwandan Foreign Minister Vincent Bairuta signed an agreement with the country's government to relocate undocumented migrants to Rwanda.

The British Home Secretary signed an agreement with Foreign Minister Vincent Bairuta on Tuesday (December 5).

This information was given in the report of the news agency Reuters.

It is to be noted that the discussion about sending immigrants to Rwanda started during the time of former Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

Then the British Supreme Court objected to it, the court said, if Rwanda pushes the migrants who left Britain to another country - in that case, the matter will be in conflict with the principles and ideals of the United Kingdom.

Later, the current government led by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's, after providing assurance on this matter, the Supreme Court removed the objection, paving the way for an agreement with Rwanda.
