A senior U.S. official says an accord could be concluded soon with Algeria on the eventual return of at least some of its citizens held in the Guantanamo Bay prison camp, according to The Associated Press. David Welch, assistant secretary of state, in Algiers Wednesday, says the United States wants to send terror suspects held at Guantanamo home but also must be assured they do not present a danger. He says that some prisoners returned home were later freed. It is not clear how many Algerians are in Guantanamo.
