Botswana rejects controversial UK proposal on asylum-seekers

FILE - A British police officer stands guard on the beach of Dungeness, on the southeast coast of England, on June 15, 2022, as migrants disembark from a lifeboat after they were picked up at sea while attempting to cross the English Channel.

Botswana says it has rejected a proposal to accept asylum-seekers from the United Kingdom, an arrangement similar to the one Rwanda has agreed to.
