There is hope for Haiti after the statements made on July 5 by the head of US diplomacy, Antony Blinken, during the Caribbean Community (Caricom) summit. He said the United States was committed to “helping the Haitian people shape their future by restoring democratic order,” a task that will not be easy.
The United States on Wednesday called on the international community to support Haiti, without committing to lead the intervention force requested by the UN for this country ravaged by violence.
The Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, participated in the summit of the Caribbean Community (Caricom) in Trinidad and Tobago, of which Haiti is a member, and also held a meeting with Prime Minister Ariel Henry. “The United States stands firmly with the Haitian people at this very difficult time,” Blinken told Henry. But “it is imperative that the international community come together to support Haiti.”
“There is zones where the crisis food forces to some families to move. Without embargo, the unsafety go on being he context either aspect that further displacement internal causes in he country”, comments Clifton Macenat, an aid worker in Haiti.

The Haitian security problem has put the international community in a maze with no way out. On the one hand, the UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, calls for the intervention of an international security force, and on the other, the United States proposes the reinforcement of local forces.
Without forgetting that in this country the institutions simply do not work, analyzes for RFI the political scientist Joseph Harold Pierre: “A State HE define minimally by his ability of assure you the security to the citizens, and he State Haitian No can give security to Yeah same, very much less to the population. Is sad say it, but the big democracies, England, France, state Joined, first they have formed the institutions and then they came the elections either came the democracy, by it that in he context Haitian No HE can impose the reverse. EITHER be, No HE can talk of democracy without that previously have existed institutions in Haiti,” he explains.
Possibility of elections?
“It further important in Haiti now I would be a intervention military. I HE that that No is possible by interests strategic international. It that us is left over is a reinforcement to the Police. Believe that that Yeah is feasible and is it that we are waiting ”, adds the political scientist.
It is precisely cooperation with the Haitian security forces that the United States is proposing, the only country that can seriously help Haiti. Peter Hakim, of the Inter-American Dialogue, believes that the United States seeks “get a agreement minimum, create a government interim”, which could generate “a choice in a year, a year and half”.
There have been no elections in Haiti since 2016. Ariel Henry, the current prime minister, takes office after the death of President Jovenel Moïse, who was assassinated in 2021. Henry has called for international intervention for almost a year, a proposal he has received the support of the UN, but so far no country has declared itself willing to lead it.
