As the European Court of Human Rights holds Lithuania accountable for its participation in the CIA’s post-9/11 secret detention program, Yumna Rizvi, senior policy analyst, writes that the United States must also be held accountable. She writes, “The US remains unwilling to face accountability for acts of torture, as it continues to detain 30 men in Guantánamo in conditions that amount to ongoing cruel treatment. It is long past due for a reckoning. The US is not above international law and must not be allowed to continue dodging justice.”
