Beijing demanded immediate return of five Chinese nationals released from the Guantanamo Bay detention centre in Cuba on Tuesday, saying the US decision to allow them to seek asylum in Albania is in violation of international law.

The five were held in Guantanamo for several years after being picked up during the US invasion of Afghanistan following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Washington said last week it was letting them go to Albania after concluding they posed no terrorist threat to the US.

"We have made representations to the related countries and urged them to send the five people to China as soon as possible," China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said at a regular press conference in Beijing. "The five people accepted by the Albanian side are by no means refugees but terrorist suspects. We think they should be repatriated to China."

Albania said it would accept the five Chinese members of the Uygur minority who are suspected of being members of a terrorist organization known as the East Turkistan Islamic Movement.

East Turkistan, upon which the UN Security Council imposed sanctions in 2002, is part of an international terrorist network and had close relations with terrorist groups such as al-Qaida. The terrorist group had been seeking separation of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from China.

"Accepting the Guantanamo suspects as refugees violates the UN Charter and international law," Liu said, adding Beijing was urging US and Albanian authorities "to send them back as soon as possible."

The five Chinese could not be regarded as refugees; they were terrorist suspects and should be repatriated to China immediately, Chinese Ambassador to Albania Tian Changchun was quoted by the Xinhua News Agency as saying.

The East Turkestan Islamic Movement is believed to have links to al-Qaida and has received arms and training from the terror network.

"They fought on the side of Taliban during the Afghan War, and this fact alone proves that they are nothing but terrorist suspects," Tian said.

The United States transported the five Chinese to Albania for settlement on Friday. They had been captured by US troops in 2001 in Pakistan and imprisoned in the US military camp at Guantanamo Bay ever since.

The United States had asked about 20 countries to offer settlements to the detainees. Among the countries that had declined were Sweden, Finland, Switzerland and Turkey.

In announcing their release last week, the US Defense Department gave scant information about the former detainees. Its statement did not say explicitly why they were not returned to China.
