Biden will try to close Guantanamo Bay Prison

International desk: The Biden administration has officially begun a review to determine the future of Cuba's Guantanamo Bay prison.

The United States established the prison in 2002 at a U.S. naval base in the southeast of Cuba.

The prison is notorious for its inhumane treatment of prisoners. Barack Obama took office as President of the United States on January 21, 2009. The next day, he signed a written order to close the 'notorious symbol' Guantanamo Bay Prison. However, his order was not implemented in the face of intense domestic political opposition from the Congress.

The Reuters quoted a White House official as saying on Saturday that the Biden administration had begun a formal re-evaluation of the Guantanamo Bay prison closure. Two associates involved in the internal talks are expected to sign an executive order on the issue this week or month.

During the 2016 election campaign, former President Donald Trump announced that the Guantanamo Bay prison would remain open. At the time, Trump said the prison would be filled with 'bad dudes'.

Since the time of George W. Bush, US spies from around the world have detained people suspected of being militants. It is learned that 40 prisoners are still detained there. The US administration has identified 26 of them as dangerous militants. The release of these 26 people is considered to be more dangerous. But due to the complexity of the cases of these prisoners, the legal process is also being delayed.
