The European Union apparently reached an agreement with Rwanda on the deportation center for refugees.
After Germany and four other EU member states pushed ahead with controversial plans to set up deportation centers for asylum seekers rejected outside the EU's borders, a decision appears to have been made.
AFP writes, citing diplomats and other knowledgeable sources, that five members of the European Union plan to announce a migration deal with Rwanda on Monday, November 16.
In this case, this African country could become the first deportation center of its kind.
Asylum seekers whose application has been rejected in the EU, but cannot be deported to their countries of origin, are supposed to be "regrouped" to deportation centers or to "return centers" in third countries outside the EU.
