Description

The Sec. of Defense tasked a special DoD team to review the conditions of confinement at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, to ensure that all detainees there are being held “in conformity with all applicable laws governing the conditions of confinement, including Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions,” pursuant to the President’s Executive Order dated Jan. 22, 2009. The Review Team conducted 13 days of investigation on site. It also solicited a sampling of opinion, studies, and published works, which reflected the perspective of detainees and other concerned interest groups. It is the Review Team’s judgment that the conditions of confinement in Guantanamo are in conformity with Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions.
