STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) - A U.S. envoy on Thursday defended the detention of suspected terrorists and Taliban fighters at a U.S. naval base in Cuba and warned that al-Qaida terrorists are planning "massive attacks" against civilians.

In an opinion article in the daily newspaper Dagens Nyheter, the U.S. ambassador-at-large for war crimes, Pierre-Richard Prosper, said detainees being held at Guantanamo Bay were being treated according to the Geneva Conventions on prisoners of war, although the United States considers them "unlawful combatants."
