Rwanda told a panel of international arbitrators Wednesday that Britain still owes it 100 million pounds ($115 million) under a controversial refugee resettlement deal that Prime Minister Keir Starmer scrapped immediately after taking office in 2024.
The 2022 deal struck by Starmer's predecessor Rishi Sunak involved sending migrants who arrive in the Uk as stowaways or in boats to the East African country. It included arrangements for payments to Rwanda to help cover costs.
