This is why Guantanamo Bay detention camp is very judged. In 2009, former president Barack Obama signed an executive order to close the prison within a year, which didn't happen. In 2018 president Donald J. Trump signed another executive order so that the doors to Guantanamo Bay would remain open. This detention camp was built to stop “war on terror” terrorist, and is now one of the most hated prisons in the world. However, Guantanamo Bay is still working today, and is being used by the US government. The world doesn't know if it will ever shut down, but we know it was created to stop further terrorist
