Netherlands Prime Minister Dick Schoof acknowledged that the proposal to deport refugees to Uganda might not be feasible for now. We need to see collectively how we can limit the flow of asylum seekers and stimulate returns. LGBTQ asylum seekers sent to Uganda could be put at risk of persecution, discrimination, and violence. Opposition to the controversial proposal is also coming from within the Dutch political opposition, citing Uganda’s bad human rights record. Western countries have often turned a blind eye to Uganda’s human rights violations under Museveni’s rule in exchange for cooperation on refuges and other controversial issues.
