When African dictatorships reach out to Trump
[]
International Viewpoint - online socialist magazine
The United States’ goal is to force African countries to take in deported individuals.
South Sudan, Eswatini (formerly Swaziland), Rwanda and, most recently, Uganda, in addition to being dictatorships, have another thing in common: they have signed an agreement with the United States to this effect, which is part of Trump’s policy of harassing immigrants.
The Southern African Litigation Centre has filed a petition because the absolute monarchy refused to allow them access to their lawyer.
The Trump administration’s goal is to sign agreements with 58 countries, including 31 in Africa, to take in banned individuals.
As for Rwanda, where torture is commonplace in prisons, President Paul Kagame sees himself as a privileged ally of the Western camp.
