Trump administration plans to transfer 9,000 undocumented migrants to Guantanamo Bay, including 100 Romanians, to free up space in US detention centers

The transfer plan was recently approved with the aim of temporarily housing migrants before deportation, although the use of Guantanamo Bay for this purpose has sparked controversy. Critics point out that most of the countries of origin are US allies, and the transfer could affect diplomatic relations. A federal lawsuit also challenges the legality of the move, arguing there is no legitimate reason to hold migrants in Guantanamo. High costs and detention conditions have also been highlighted as concerns.
