El Opinador Compulsivo

Veamos si entiendo bien. Varios países de Europa, entre ellos el Reino Unido, no dejan pasar un día sin exigir – demandar - solicitar la liberación inmediata de los prisioneros que EEUU mantiene en Guantánamo. Pero, maravillosamente, son los primeros en oponerse cuando EEUU propone que algunos de ellos vuelvan a sus países de origen.

¿En qué quedamos? ¿O el cacareo es sólo para mandarse la parte?:

Britain and other U.S. allies have demanded closure of the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, but have also blocked efforts to let some prisoners return home, The Washington Post reported on Tuesday.

British officials recently rejected a U.S. offer to transfer 10 former British residents from Guantanamo to the United Kingdom, arguing that it would be too expensive to keep them under surveillance, the newspaper said, citing documents made public this month in London.

Britain has also staved off a legal challenge by the relatives of some prisoners who sued to require the British government to seek their release, The Washington Post said.

While all British citizens in Guantanamo were freed starting in 2004, Britain has balked at allowing former legal residents of the country to return, the newspaper said.

Germany and other European allies, which have spoken out against Guantanamo, also have balked at accepting prisoners from the facility, the Post said.
