Description

Facts about Guantanamo. What do we Hope. Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, has played a critical role in U.S. foreign policy since the nineteenth century. The U.S. Naval Station there is the oldest American base outside of the continental United States, and the only U.S. base located in a country with which the United States does not have diplomatic relations. Known alternately as GITMO, the 45-square-mile base is located at Cuba's southeastern tip and is approximately four hundred miles from Miami, Florida. In 2006 GITMO was home to approximately 8,500 U.S. service personnel (and their dependents) whose mission includes providing logistical support to the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard, maintaining migrant operations, and hosting the Detainee Mission of the "War on Terror" under the direction of the Joint Task Force Guant�namo. American presence began when the United States invaded Guant�namo Bay and established a marine base during the Spanish-American War. Cuban independence fighters worked with American forces to expel Spain. At the end of the war in August 1898, the United States controlled Cuba. The 1901 Platt Amendment, adopted by the U.S. Congress and incorporated into Cuba's constitution, defined U.S. involvement in Cuba's affairs. Until such time as Cuba had an independent government, the United States would intervene to preserve Cuban independence or to maintain "a government adequate for the protection of life, property, and individual liberty." The amendment also ceded Guant�namo to the United States
