Page "Guantanamo Bay Naval Base" Paragraph 55

President Barack Obama has stated that he intends to close down the detention camp and is planning on bringing detainees to the United States to stand trial by the end of his first term in office.

On January 22, 2009, three executive orders were issued by President Obama, although only one of these orders explicitly deals with policy directed at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp, which directs the camp's closure within one year.

All three could possibly impact the detention center, as well as how any detainee future or present will be held by the United States.
