Address the detentions at Guantánamo Bay as an international law issue that requires urgent attention.
• Guantánamo detainees should either be charged and prosecuted in fair trials or released to countries that will respect their human rights, including into the USA.
• The US military commissions, which do not meet international fair trial standards, should be abandoned.
• Former or current US officials responsible for human rights violations must be held to account, including in respect of crimes under international law such as torture and enforced disappearance by bringing them to justice. Victims of human rights violations must be provided genuine access to effective remedy.
• The USA must recognize the applicability of, and fully respect international human rights law.
