Uganda has confirmed it will receive migrants who are denied asylum in the United States under a new third-country deportation arrangement. Kampala says the deal is a temporary measure and comes with strict conditions—excluding unaccompanied minors and individuals with criminal records. Uganda has also indicated it prefers to take in people from other African nations rather than from outside the continent. The U.S. says detailed modalities are still being worked out. With this move, Uganda joins a small list of countries willing to cooperate with Washington’s controversial deportation strategy, which has faced criticism from rights groups worldwide.
