Chaos in Haiti is growing as the world is watching
The situation in Haiti has deteriorated rapidly over the past two weeks. While until recently protests and gang violence were mainly concentrated in the capital Port-au-Prince and surrounding areas, since early September the unrest has spread to the rest of the country. The rise in gasoline and food prices, which have reached unprecedented heights, is the basis of these mobilizations. We share information on the situation drawn from various sources, including among others the representative of the COEH in Haiti, Colette Lespinasse.
First anniversary of the earthquake in the Great South of Haiti
Last week marked the first anniversary of the heavy earthquake that hit the southern part of Haiti, causing lost lives and much damage. A conference was organized where local organisations and authorities shared their experiences with aid and crisis management with each other and with NGOs. Colette Lespinasse was present and reports.
The Security Council again extends the mandate of the UN agency in Haiti
“Violence in Haiti. Dozens dead fighting for control,” read the BBC News headline in mid-July. Is it still relevant news? Or take this headline, three days later: “Gang Violence in Haiti: The ‘UN prohibits the trade in small arms”. Will this decision of the Security Council contribute to curbing the influx of heavy weapons? Haitians suffer from violence, insecurity, the economic crisis, the lack of almost everything. Human rights organizations are sounding the alarm, the UN Security Council is meeting, the press is reporting, and the Haitian government is silent.

The team that coordinates BAP's work in the "Americas" is the "Haiti/Americas" team. BAP understands that Haiti is key to the liberation project in our region and the broader liberation of African peoples. But that view is a minority view among Euro-"American" left. https://twitter.com/grosmorne29/status/1574473121439981568

The US is all of a sudden concerned by Haiti’s corrupt oligarchs now that some appear to back anti-government protests. But they were just fine with those same oligarchs for the last decade plus while they formed the main constituency of successive US-backed governments.
