more from article:

After news that Palau, a former US territory, had agreed to take in the Uighurs, China today demanded that they be sent back there to be tried as terrorists – but the United States refuses to do so.

Palau's decision appeared to be linked to a US offer of $200 million in "development and budget aid", but it was not clear whether Bermuda had been offered a similar amount.

Ewart Brown, the Bermudian Premier, said that the United States had agreed to bear the costs associated with relocating the men on the island.

It seems as though this administration's guiding principle
is "If it ain't broke, we can still fix it"

It was under the previous administration that the Uighurs were found to be innocent of the charges. If they are returned to China they will be killed. Like so many other difficult decisions the previous administration left it up to the present one to figure out what to do.
