在軍事監獄在關塔那摩海灣為外國恐怖主義嫌疑犯應該是立刻閉合和它的囚犯被移動向美國的星期天前美國國務卿Colin Powell說。
Powell，在2003年講話對聯合國安全理事會做事件為戰爭反對伊拉克為擁有的大規模殺傷性武器未曾被發現，說有爭議的監獄在古巴比好成為了一個「重大問題」為美國』圖像海外并且做了更多害處。
“Guantanamo has become a major, major problem … in the way the world perceives America and if it were up to me I would close Guantanamo not tomorrow but this afternoon … and I would not let any of those people go. I would simply move them to the United States and put them into our federal legal system,” Powell told NBC’s Meet the Press.
“Essentially, we have shaken the belief the world had in America’s justice system by keeping a place like Guantanamo open and creating things like the military commission. We don’t need it and it is causing us far more damage than any good we get for it,” he added.
The United States is holding about 380 foreign terrorism suspects at Guantanamo.
Rights groups and foreign governments have called for the prison to be closed, saying holding prisoners there for years without trial violated legal standards. But Washington says the prison is legal and necessary to hold dangerous individuals.
“I would get rid of Guantanamo and the military commission system and use established procedures in federal law,” Powell said, saying some leaders around the world were using Guantanamo to hide their own misdeeds.
“It’s a more equitable way, and more understandable in constitutional terms,” he added.
