The United States has reaffirmed its support for the Caribbean Community's (CARICOM) condemnation of any actions that could destabilize Haiti's Transitional Presidential Council. Following discussions between U.S. officials and regional leaders, including Prime Minister Mia Mottley of Barbados and Chairman of CARICOM, the Secretary of State and Deputy Secretary have reiterated their commitment to working with the international community to bring peace and stability to the island nation.
In light of the current security challenges facing Haiti, the United States has expressed its support for the efforts being made by the Kenya-led Multinational Security Support Mission (MSSM) and CARICOM. The MSSM, which was established in response to a request from the Haitian government, aims to provide assistance to the country's authorities as they work to combat armed criminal gangs and promote stability.
The U.S. has continued to engage in close consultations with governments across the region, including those in the Caribbean and Central America, in order to address the complex security challenges facing Haiti. As a key partner in the international community, the United States is committed to supporting efforts that promote peace, stability, and security in the Americas.
The Haitian government has faced significant challenges in recent months, including the rise of armed criminal gangs and a decline in public services. The international community has come together to offer support, with the MSSM playing a key role in providing assistance to the country's authorities. The U.S. will continue to work closely with its partners to address these challenges and promote a more stable future for Haiti.
