At the United Nations emergency transit center next to a serene lake south of Rwanda's capital on Wednesday, the quiet mood was broken by the sobs of a group of female migrants from Ethiopia.
"They were evacuated from Libya but they don't want to live here," said a U.N. refugee agency translator.
"Brighter future is not only resettlement in Europe," said Elise Villechalane, a UNCHR spokeswoman in Rwanda. "Brighter future can mean, I don't know, maybe resettlement elsewhere."
