The U.S. Has had trouble removing prisoners from Guantanamo Bay prison. The U.S. has been trying to find countries willing to take the prisoners and are also able to be trusted to keep close watch over them. They are worried that if they send them to unstable countries they will rejoin terrorist groups. Many of the prisoners have been sent to Ireland, Portugal, Spain and Belgium. Since the Obama administration
began the number has only been lowered from 240 to 174. Obama's deadline has been missed and it is not
as much of a priority.
