The Obama administration has delayed plans to close the U.S. prison camp at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba for weeks, possibly longer, a Pentagon official told Al Jazeera on Tuesday. President Barack Obama intended to present his plan to Congress last week, but now there is no target date, said the official, who declined to be named due to a lack of authorization to speak about the timeline. “It could be after Thanksgiving. It could be after Christmas, it could be after the new year,” the official said.
