  • Rwanda says it won't Refund the UK over Scrapped Migration Deal | Vantage with Palki Sharma
    Rwanda was given more the $400 million by the former UK government as part of the controversial Migration Deal. The new British government has scrapped the deal, and was hoping to get at least a partial refund. Rwanda has set the record straight. It has no intention to return the British money. The migrant housing it built will be going to Rwandan citizens instead.

    Can’t blame Rwanda. The Uk made a stupid deal, but for Rwanda it was a godsend. Literally hundreds of millions of dollars was paid to Rwanda for absolutely nothing (practically no flights and practically no immigrants sent)
    Rwanda would be foolish to refund it. In fact they could likely charge a fine for the UK reneging on the agreement.

It’s basically like if you subscribed to a streaming service and agreed to maintain the streaming service for 5 years, never used it and the. Cancelled early.

    Why would they refund the money. Same with what they did to zimbabwe government prior to landreform. A new british government mocked mugabe and said funding for buying back your land was promised by a government that is no longer in power so no money for you. Mugabe toom back land by force then boom zim is now under sanctions and they destroyed the country that was once a breadbasket for africa and they blame corruption of locals .

    As bad a deal as India buying the INS Vikramaditya from Russian. The Russians basically conned India into takening off Russian''s hands an old (1980s), rusting and unfinished aircraft carrier. India agreed to paid Russia to fit it out and accept purchased from Russia (separately) of some Russian aircraft. Original agreed price was US$800 million but after all the delays and threats from the Russians, it cost India US$3.1 Billion. Originally intended to enter the Indian Navy in 2010-12 but it was not until 2014+.
    The funny thing is originally, India decided against buying a new carrier because of the cost but still ended up paying the same kind of money on an old second-hand Russian carrier, that was delayed for years and it has already had multiple accidents and fires.

    Just a little clarification: The construction works that the UK Home Secretary visited were an expansion wing that would be used to house both Rwandans and Illegal migrants. However, the houses the Home Secretary visited back then were already there even before the UK-Rwanda scheme. Initially, they were constructed as an affordable housing plan put in place by the Rwandan government in collaboration with a construction company specializing in affordable housing called ADHI, and 70% of the houses in that initial plan were sold to the public so just so your audience know those houses were not constructed using UK migration deal money but the expansion plan was though.
    Secondly, the other sort of apartment building that you showed was there, it was a hotel which was meant to house the first migrants temporarily it wasn't constructed using UK money.
    Lastly, Rwanda didn't refuse to refund the money because first of all the UK didn't request it and this was a unilateral decision from the UK hence Rwanda held its end of the bargain therefore didn't violate any clauses stipulated in the plan so it's not in any legal obligation to provide any Refund whatsoever. In any financial agreement if one party decides to opt out because of their own reasons the other party isn't obligated to provide any sort of refund if it fulfilled its obligations.

      Honestly.. Nigeria should take note. Rwanda is leading very well by example. I trust our leaders they will even give them twice the money.

      Or small amount of stolen African resources given back. Lets do the math as to how much went where.

    The UK government should make all the contracts and agreements belonging to this question public domain so that everybody can check if there is any obligation for Rwanda to refund a single Penny...

    I’m from Rwanda 🇷🇼 if they gave 400M and we used 320M we will return the rest that’s what our government said and if we were the ones to break the agreement then we would return 400M fully

      Rwanda didn't get the money.
      The British spent the money in Rwanda building stuff for the refugees.
      There is no money, only some buildings.

      But British had looted Rwanda and never paid reparations. God will punish you if you don't use your only opportunity. 🙏
