Italy calls for closure of Guantanamo Bay prison

"Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi has told Arab television station Al Jazeera that the United States should close its Guantanamo Bay prison as soon as possible.

"Speaking in an interview recorded on Tuesday and due to be broadcast on Friday, Berlusconi referred to the many reports of abuse and torture of detainees at the United States naval base in Cuba.

"'I too think that these centers where there have been episodes that the whole world has condemned should be closed as quickly as possible,' he said."
