The U.S. formally transferred control of its largest prison to the Afghans in a ceremony Monday at Bagram airbase north of Kabul.
The Obama Administration agreed in March to cede control of Bagram, also known as the Parwan Detention Facility, well ahead of the 2014 deadline, at the insistence of President Hamid Karzai, in a deal to help our “partner in peace” politically.
"We are telling the Afghan president and the Afghan people that today is a proud day," said Afghan army Gen. Ghulam Farouk, who now heads the prison.
General John Allen, the U.S. commander in Afghanistan wasn’t quite as jubilant, skipping Monday’s ceremony, and the Pentagon has hit the brakes on continuing implementation of the deal.
