European Court Chief Urges UK Compliance with Rwanda Rulings

The president of the European Court of Human Rights emphasizes the legal obligation for countries to comply with its injunctions, amid UK ministers considering ignoring them in relation to the Rwanda bill aiming to halt legal challenges against plans to send asylum seekers to Rwanda. The bill, which could breach the European Convention on Human Rights, faces opposition in the House of Lords, with the court president's comments adding to the pressure on the government's plan.
