Árbitros internacionales rechazan demanda de Ruanda contra Reino Unido

International arbitrators reject $134M claim by Rwanda against UK for scrapped migrant deal

The Permanent Court of Arbitration rejected Rwanda's $134M claim against the UK over the scrapped migrant resettlement deal, ruling that post-cancellation diplomatic exchanges constituted an agreement to waive the two £50M payments due in 2025–2026. For policy and compliance teams, the ruling confirms that informal written exchanges between governments can have binding contractual force, a precedent relevant to any cross-border public-sector deal unwound by a change in administration.
