We get an update on the crisis in Haiti, where deadly violence has continued to escalate between armed groups and police fighting for control of the capital Port-au-Prince. The country’s political future remains unclear, with recently resigned Prime Minister Ariel Henry, who is stranded outside of Haiti, raising questions this week over the constitutionality of a “transitional council” formed to serve as an interim governing body until elections are scheduled.
Meanwhile, Canadian forces have been sent to Jamaica to train troops from Caribbean nations to join the U.N.-authorized mission to Haiti. Haitian American scholar Jemima Pierre says the transitional council is essentially a front for U.S. interests, and warns there will be “inevitable war crimes” if foreign troops are deployed to Haiti. “It’s a terrible situation, but I think the idea that there’s a Haitian-led solution coming is actually a false one,” says Pierre.
We are also joined by Kim Ives, editor of the English section of Haiti Liberté, who says Haiti is in the midst of a “revolutionary process,” led by Jimmy “Barbecue” Chérizier. Ives says that far from being a gang leader, Chérizier has built a coalition to fight the criminal groups in the country and was central to the ouster of Ariel Henry. “You always have to demonize, criminalize the people’s resistance, and that’s what we’re seeing today when they try to put all the armed groups of Haiti’s popular classes into one bag called 'the gangs,'” says Ives.

Let Haitians live Haiti has the right to govern herself, Haiti is independent 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹
Yes it its. Please dont come to Dominican rep. Too much already you guys are cancel destroyed everything you see in front of you.
If building the wall isn’t sufficient enough? Start digging build a canal allow the ocean to come in that’s the next logical steps for y’all to be permanently separated and free of Haitians. Otherwise sit in your tiny world and enjoy your little island. All bet you have not seen better.
@@maximoarias-dn8kwAsk the Dominicans to stop killing Haitians. Life is so precious.
Haiti could be independent.
Not when they have mountains of metals more precious than gold the American and France government won't let that happen

So true! You have a good understanding of the problems in Haiti.
@user-wk9yg7lh8n I'm haitian. I'm aware of who doesn't like me as a black man .
They're definitely at the heart of it all 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯💯

No one has the right to invade another's home, and demand order.
Go home and stay away.
You invading Dominican republic go away . We dont want ya here you guys are cancel.
Sure but when the people starve or genocide each other they blame the international community
They wouldn't have to if Haiti was civilized

As a Jamaican, Jamaicans need to mind their own business and focus on the problems in our backyard. We should not engage in fighting our own. Oh wait, how could I forget? Jamaica is not independent.
Facts! Jamaica have gunman to deal with but going in other people's country. Unreal! :[
I am hoping you are getting a better understanding of what is going on in Haiti right now. Try not to forget the oligarchs corrupt gangs dress in the suits with a ties, bring up the sleepers. gangs. Now the sleepers gangs eyes are opened and they turn against oligarchs corrupt, and oligarchs corrupt have all the power and the money and then They pay some folks to make the situation worse to make you think gangs sleepers do it. And pushing their agendas against Haitian people to bring foreign military to kill Haitian. (SAD) BUT NOW NO MATTER WHAT 95% OF HAITIAN PEOPLE SAID: THEY WANT GUY PHILLIPS , THEY WAN GUY PHILLIPS Those oligarchs corrupt caricome been in Haiti for years and years, that country looks worse than a dumpster, trashcan, and the country can not go any lower. People are dying. Oligarchs corrupt killed more people than sleepers gangs, OK.. Enough is enough. PLEASE step back to let Haitian people choose their own leaders.PASS IT ON. THANKS.
Nobody wants to engage with Haiti...I can assure you that.....Haiti is the Elephant in the room....respectfully
Marcus Garvey would be proud
BRAVO, my Jamaican brother. Real Haitians appreciate you.
As a Black American, I support Haiti's REVOLUTION!

Im a Caucasian and I agree with you. We need to let Haiti solve its problem through a needed revolution. countries need to not meddle in Haitian affaires
The US needs to stop meddling with other countries.
Haiti doesn't really have the means or resources to pull it out of this predicament. How should anyone expect it to survive without foreign intervention?

This!
@@ausername8699 intervention, or help? There's a difference. America usually chooses bloody dictators over legally elected rulers when it intercedes. You can read the Shock Doctrine, by Naomi Kline, for examples.
If France and American banks paid back the money they legally stole from Haiti over the decades, I'm sure that would help.
Haitians keep saying they don’t need help. Just leave them alone.
That's impossible, they freed themselves ... Unmelanated nations will always interfere to stop their peace and prosperity
Haitians don't need fake help by the same people who are the authors of this sordid situation.

Unfortunately you guys aren't ready for that
But yet you immigrants flee to America saying we don't have the right to fight for our country.
Yes. No Haitian aid and no more coming to Florida. Just rely on yourselves for strength.
@@Freerider93no matter what, that’s their business and nobody else. America already has enough problems right here right in the USA 🇺🇸…
@@astrostar7018 Actually turmoil in one country tends to effect other countries close to them. It's not in the US's interest to let this instability fester on our front door. Also we're the richest nation in the history of the world. We can solve our issues and fix Haiti.
Americans need to get their own house in line before worrying about being world police.
Haiti being a shit hole will lead to an influx of immigrants trying to flee from their shit hole to America
Like what?
These third world countries need to stop begging for Americans tax payer money.
Okay, then no Haitian refugees in Florida then.
And no aid money.
Fine by me, America first
If they are so concerned about Human Rights violations then why is the U.N. so silent on Isreal😮.
Yep.......freedom for Palestine....stop genocide now
Because the muslims violate human rights every day NOT only the palestinians but EVERY muslim does!
The UN have not been silent on Israel they have talked about Israel, more than any other country in the world !

But European nations and America are the reason why it’s messed up in Haiti in the 1st place. Look up the president like 2 presidents ago in Haiti that demanded its reparations back from France. They took him to Africa and he never returned. The president. Look up why Haiti was paying reparations to France. Why is a poor country paying reparations? Look up how many times US intervened and occupied Haiti. They lied to you man.
This is a idiotic behavior by the Jamaican PM to send troops to Haiti... Jamaica is in the same position as Haiti or worse..1400 and more murdered each year in Jamaica..2.8 million ppl in Jamaica...to 10 million in Haiti..Canada and France speak the language..
Thank you Professor Pierre, for lifting the veil on the United States' HYPOCRISY and RUSE toward Haiti.
Talk is cheap. I am getting the impression that Professor Pierre is not living in Haiti. Try to imagine the world without the US. For instance, Venezuela will be able to take two thirds of Guyana, no question asked. China will take Taiwan and Russia will create a new empire, no questions asked. The US don't have to do anything for Haiti. If Professor Pierre is asked to be the Prime Minister, I have the feeling she will say no.
Every country that voted to send foreign military into Haiti wouldn't want this to happen to their country! We are dealing with beings who are trying to sacrifice the Haitians to evil Western oligarchs! They Haitians' issues are the Haitians' business, not eternal forces that want to oppress and control the people and control their resources!
What resources? Are you people crazy. Persons are eating mud cakes.
Américain steal our resources ,they continue to to steal , they don’t respect the Haïtien people choice who’s Guy Philip , they want to invade Haiti
Clinton in wife buy Haiti land ? The Haïtien people can’t brieve
Facts and I hear here in the US, they r appointing Hilary Clinton to head the intervention in Haiti, this shows the corruption alone on us part, wtf is she going there for?
@MrChetah They have the LARGEST OIL RESERVE IN THE WORLD! The US controls their LNG! Narcissist, psychopaths colonizers are always the problem!
You guys don't Go to Haiti to fight my brother's and sister's God bless haiti.... Haitian people have the right to choose they own president God bless God

Trust it America ganna get flipped upside down !!

The average haitian believes in voodoo not God.
The Kenyan mercenary William Rutto need to stay away from 🇭🇹.
He's not a mercenary. Just a puppet. U doubt he's even fired a gun in his life
Haïti 🇭🇹 is a sovereign country
Haiti 🇭🇹 is Free indépendant and sovereign why can’t the international community respect that .
Yeah!!!??? I mean why!!!??
It's not truly independent, the US dictates from the US embassy.
How can anyone in his right mind condone what is happening in Haiti? Is this what you call independence? How can anyone respect what is happening in Haiti?
watch this video to see why we dont want America in Haiti. Haiti Is Collapsing: Here's Why by Cogito
The French need to be held responsible for Haiti's failure as a state. Its high time these imperialists answer for their actions
low iq is the real culprit
Sure it Frence, but America is the main one. For decades they don't want Haiti to have a functional army, claimed they would provide Haiti's security, and while they were providing Haiti security, Jovenel Moise was assassinated at his private home, and brutally tortured. Every president the coutry elected, they give the Courp de tard, and they keep interfering in the country's politics. I have never seen or heard an embassy get that involved in a country's government that much. We only want US as partner when we have a president, nothing more. Show some respect!!
That is weak minded thinking and makes it out that Haitians have no ability to self-determine and have made no mistakes of their own. You can't constantly be blaming others and never looking at yourself.
As a Haitian you would be right they made us a horrible nation a hell to live in if Haiti kept its money that the French stole we would be prosp😮erous
Same goes for the united states
WHY WHEN ANYTHING HAPPENS ANY PLACE ON THIS PLANET, THE SOLUTION IS ALWAYS ABOUT WHAT THE US WANTS .
Well...don't be naive... everyone wants something...don't fogert the Haitian Elite.
I guess the simple answer is we're supposed to be the world leader. But of course we seem to always have some type of ulterior motive. Hopefully this time will be different.
I wonder why US have to be involved every in the world . Please let the Haitians people alone . The people has a Leader names Guy Philippe .
@@pierrederosier245Of course...until he also is force to exile or assassinated by a different interest group in Haiti!? You guys cannot agree! that is why Haiti is in this position! Your own elite cannot agree!
So you would rather just leave all haitians to their own devices? Even if that means many will suffer as the economy tanks? And if a criminal despot takes power and fills his own coffers while impoverishing the people? Everyone should just leave the Haitians to themselves? No money, no security help, no humanitarian relief?
I support Haiti 1000%. These international council aren't acting in the best interest for Haiti
So you think Haiti should just be left to its own devices?
@@ninadaly7639that’s the attitude that has the place destabilized now.
@@rubetube4727None of that iridium nonsense is real. All that mess comes from two articles that badly misrepresented a scientific study. Geologists have already said iridium can’t form in Haiti.

FREE HAITI.🇭🇹✊🏾
Leave Haiti alone!
Let Haiti be!
Stop dictating!
Stop making decisions against Haiti's will.
Let the Haitian people choose the path to their own destiny.
The USA, France, Canada, and the Dominican Republic are responsible for the ongoing instability in Haiti.
The US government is using chaos to justify their planned deployment of foreign forces to that country.
Meanwhile, the Haitian people are strongly saying NO to the military intervention and occupation on their soil.🇭🇹✊🏾
haitians are begging russians to intervene. Are you keeping up?
You missed that the USA has no interest in doing that. They have been shopping for years trying to find someone who was willing to go in (using finical aid to try to get them to help). Haiti is a mess and nobody wants to go there... Even the Haitians don't seem to be happy to go there. As far as whether on not the request for forces is legitimate. Haiti is a country (probably) but it is lawless so there is no legitimate source for anything there.
So just let Haiti slide further into chaos and poverty? Haiti needs an intervention, hopefully by Haitians themselves. Disbanding the Haitian Army was a terrible thing to do. In other countries when the politicians fail, the military steps in. A new Haitian National Army need to be raised and I'm afraid the only way to do so is via a foreign intervention.
@Ali-7676 foreign intervention is the reason why Haiti is in the position they are now! We do not want foreign "help" .....we are tired of our natural being sources being stolen, our people getting raped and our country being sold by puppet presidents.
@@Ali-7676 that aint in the Haitian constitution. there is no provision for the junta to take over when the president is overthrown or the country is without a governing body. Haitians don't know how to run a country, bottom line. they should just dissolve that country send Haitians to African countries willing to take them in, and give the land to DR.
If u don’t want American govt to be involved , don’t dare ask to give Haitians asylum !!!!
America has a direct had of destabilizing haiti for the last 3 decades alone. Anyone who makes it onto US soil has the right to seek asylum per US Code. If you dont like what happening down there hold your own govt responsible for its misleadership and policies like the monroe doctrine.

Thank you for recognizing revolutionaries as just that. They are so much more than simply gangs. Cherizier truly LOVES Haiti and his people.

Why are immigrants a problem tho? but i agree when need to keep everyone out, including canadians and people from the UK

Im lost. Haiti cant handle itself right now. Dont want outsiders? Who do the Haitians want to lead and how do they propose these leaders get chosen if not with help from outsiders?
Are you serious?
Only Engineers, Economists and Lawyers with Black African roots can truly help Haiti. Europeans had their chance and failed. It is time for a change. Peace.🕛
No one wants the rapist Colonizers
They want France (and the world) to pour trillions of dollars into Haiti no questions asked and then that money will be used to fix the mess is what I am hearing.
Outsiders by force have been gouvene Haiti for decades until it gets to that point. The economy ,the security ,everything. All kinds of organizations core groups the country gets to that point. Think about it.
We don't need foreign intervention. We can do it ourselves, financially and socially 👑👑

@jameschauvet3140 UN Report on Cannabis in the DR April 2023 states: The Cannabis/drug that is in the DR 🇩🇴 comes from Haiti 🇭🇹.
@jameschauvet3140 The UN wants the DR 🇩🇴 to accept refugees and involved the DR, but did not say the cause. The UN in a report (March 2023) involved the DR 🇩🇴, because the DR 🇩🇴 accepted the CIP Request, after Haiti 🇭🇹 turned to the CIP and the DR 🇩🇴 decided to help
By 2022, the DR 🇩🇴 was already receiving in [Assuming the costs of operations] its transshipment and expedition ports, goods from other countries such as the United States 🇺🇲 that are going to Haiti 🇭🇹. Because the shipping companies did not want to send it directly due to insecurity and to avoid increases in freight costs.
Always accusing others instead of taking accountability for their own actions! Haiti has been the most independent nation on earth and next door the DR is simple example of a nation so No No No stop blaming the French or Americans or …..

Stop being ignorant. The gangs will be the new police and army. What solution is that?
this isnt gang violence, its a insurgency. the insurgency prevent the president from being in the country. Haiti needs time to build its government systems and disarm the gangs. this is a complex problem.
It can be both.

Haiti does not get guns from Jamaica. For over two decades now the Jamaican police has been struggling with the guns for drugs trade where Jamaican criminals would bring drugs usually marijuana to Haiti and trade it for guns. Almost all the illegal guns in Jamaica comes from the USA either directly or indirectly through Haiti. Democracy now should correct that record!
Haiti doesn't need to trade guns for marijuana. They know how to grow their own. That 'guns for ganja' business is largely a myth.
I use to hear that story I now believe it was truly proganda. What a disgrace!
@@opensprings There is a difference between “know how” and actually doing it. Does Haiti have enough arable land to grow enough marijuana to export?
@@andrewizz7526 No, not at all, but I was referring to marijuana farming as a leisurely activity in Haiti, rather than a business.
Haitian Propaganda Vs Facts : 1- French debt: paid in 1947 DR and haiti had the same GDP back then, now DR is 10 times bigger. 2- colonial deforestation that let to land erosion: haiti had 60% of forest land in 1923 now is 2%. Is always “someone else’s fault” if you say otherwise “you’re racist” Haiti stands as the only black nation on this entire continent that has overthrown arround 80% of all its presidents and lives in permanent chaos and anarchy. THE ONLY ONE!
If Haiti doesn't want international intervention is their choice but don't be accepting any type of Donation or Aid. The world has left them alone and people are still being killed. I don't see Jemima Pierre in Haiti helping out just blaming the US for Haiti's downfall.

Don't worry about Haiti. Worry about how African Americans are still being treated like second-class citizens.
How can outside forces sit with outside forces and decide what is best for people inside the country without their input.
Democracy-Now, Thank you for those interviews regarding the situation in Haiti 🇭🇹.
Why Canada choose to train people from other nationalities to prepare them to fight for Haitian people ? It would require less effort and less expense to assist the Haitian police officers and military that are already in Haiti.
Canada does not have to do shit. Where are the Haitian police and military, they have their own gangs.

I see what you're saying. But in Jamaica they've not shut down the airports and let prisoners out of the prison etc. Respectfully it's an apples and oranges comparison. But I pray for a peace in Haiti. Peace everywhere.
I mean if we're being honest Hati is a failed state. You have no say in this. You need help whether you want it or not.
@@Freerider93 But the irony here is that the very people who decidedly worked tirelessly to drive and keep Haiti to the ground and in misery are the same ones, every now and then, deceiving the world into thinking that they are helping Haiti. The US, France and Canada all need to get their hands off of Haiti neck.
@@Freerider93failed because of who? External forces, namely france and the u.s. now these same states riding in on horses to save the day.
Jamaica doesn’t want to get caught in this. Do you know how much arm wringing is going on. USA just increase travel warning on Jamaica and Bahamas for reason.
I am part of the first generation of Haitian Americans born and raised in the United States. I served in the US Navy, and I have a Law Enforcement background. I am just one of many Haitian Americans who have a skill that can be utilized in Haiti. In this first generation, there are doctors, EMTs, architects, engineers, IT professionals, and many others who will have a vested interest in bringing structure and order. If the US really wanted to do something, they would reach out to this group here in the US. The US could have easy put a peace core made of this group and used the money to back the peace core instead of to foreign interests that will have no vested interest in Haiti. Put the call out and watch how many of us will respond to the call.
It’s up to the Haitian diaspora to form their OWN GROUP and when they’re unified and truly organized they can present themselves to the UN and get funding. The question is what established Haitian organization is going to start this initiative?
Thank you for serving our country
The US thrives on chaos in other countries. That seems to bring that country (the US) the most money, it’s profitable. That’s what it’s all about right? Not human rights but money.
This is one case where I think an international coalition would be warranted to manage things for a while. Haiti has been in a perpetual state of crisis/revolt/self-immolation for the past 3 generations. It doesn't matter the reason or historical precedent - they are not capable of self-rule. On the plus side, they also have no natural resources and are not a strategic military point, so it's not like a Western nation would WANT to control the area for longer than necessary.
I wish I could hear Kim Ives' answer to Jemima Pierre's "agnostic" analysis of Cherizier.
Same here. I was very disappointed at her indifference to obvious Western propaganda.
I’m so surprised she stood on behalf of her people and they let her speak 😢. This is great journalism and news
Apparently Mrs Pierre intervened from the oligarchy perspective! She is so unaware of the Haitian problematic that she can barely find her words.
The host needs better educated expert for such a good show
BBQ must be modern day Robin Hood💯💪🏽
So … If Haiti doesn’t want international and political help ….Does the world just stand bye and let Haiti 🇭🇹 destroy itself ???
yes.
Of course, what business is it of anyone else to force their "help" on another country who absolutely insists the dont want it? Especially when that "help" is overthrowing their government and replacing it with your own
Yeahhhhh👍👍👍👍👍
It’s called ; fight to the death .
So.. We just let our fellow man/ woman get brutally raped and murdered ??
The UN chief on human rights in Haiti 🇭🇹, William O'Neill (April 2, 2024) criticized the United States 🇺🇲 for not taking action against the shipment of American weapons from Florida to Haitian ports: I am surprised that they cannot bring food or medicine to Haiti, but still, weapons and bullets arrive.
I can't believe that my Government cannot inspect those boats that leave the Miami River and remove all the weapons, because Haiti 🇭🇹 does not produce
First time I see a media sharing the reality of what going on in Haiti A+++ Everyone.
We have heard that narrative before. They have a playbook before intervention.
From the Dominican Republic? the border has been closed for more than a month now... Nothing is being transported via DR, so please stop blaming your neighbors. Take some accountability! There are guards on both sides of the border. Are you also taking some responsibility for your own forces not doing their job?
Where do the guns come from once they leave the US?
@@huguechery970D.R.. For some reason several of the assassins that killed the haytian president easily escaped to D.R!!
@@huguechery970yes from the DR- but they are not the ones providing the GUNS- they are being used as the bridge to get it into Haiti- you really believe that that country has the power to STOP THE USA. I want to believe you’re smarter than that!
The border is not closed and smugglers do not use regular border crossings.
DR
We don't need intervention in Haiti. there are too many interventions in Haiti in the past and not resolved. The problems Haiti need is their own army to protect themselves .
Why are they not getting their own army to protect themselves?
Leave Haiti Alone
US wont leave those gold reserves alone
Dear Jemina, thanks for the illustration on the facts that PAP is the epicenter of the problem Haiti is facing. We need more people to voice this out to the mainstream media.
Excellent interview . I am glad to see his nickname was finally cleared up . Once again mainstream media won't say this .
The truth starts to come out. Thank you Mr. Ives
And there's the problem. America won't let Haiti make their own decision because they may lose control like france has lost control of all of their African interest.
Who wants to control Haiti? Haiti has been nothing but problems for the entire world. Question, Africa has the most resources, yet the poorest, why do you think this is? It has nothing to do with control, I guest you do not understand how the world is working. Intercontinental missiles mean you do not have to be on the ground in Africa to fight a war.
Once again it's colonialism. At the end of the three-day engagement. Endorsing this approach, Ms. Maguire said, “The two organisations are powerful on their own, but it makes sense to do more together.” The caricom the secretariat wrote on their webesite, This sounds counterintuitive to what the people have been saying at what they want for Haiti They need the basics they are trying to put the cart before the horse when they don't want it. Haiti wants to figure it out themselves. so could it even be possible that Jeminma even discuss with Bob Rae? I hardly think she'd give him the time of day.
200+ years ago Haiti became an independent state … it was born in blood .. an estimated 200,000 ex slaves, 25,000 colonialists, and 120,000 French and British Soldiers ( who were fighting each other ) were casualties that’s 355,000 people! Compare that to say the Reign of Terror in the French Revolution ( of 50,000). What this shows is how Haiti is so steeped in blood from its very foundation to today . It’s been a State, a Kingdom, an Empire … it conquered the western part of Hispaniola ( only to be overthrown by the people of the Dominican Republic). Free American slaves even emigrated to Haiti ( only to return to the U.S. - which at that stage still had slavery!). There have always been coups counter coups dictatorships counter dictatorships and alway blood lots and lots of blood. The bottom line is this trying to manage Haiti as normal country is a will not work. Haiti is basically a “tribal” state.. that’s what the gangs are … tribes… You are with this gang or that gang… but in the end it’s a gang. Listening to all the Haitian “intellectuals” is a joke. The first thing they all have in common is that they are not in Haiti ( first thing they did was to get our) second thing that they all have in common is citizenship (if not first themselves for their children) in another country. I do not blame them I would do the same. Unfortunately democracy has not and will not and can never work in Haiti. It’s like trying to get prison gangs to run a prison. Each gang will only be able to to run it until another gang is formed which takes out the first gang and so on. I guarantee if tomorrow a country like the U.S. were to offer citizenship to Haitians if they were to leave Haiti, all 11 million people in Haiti ( including the gangsters) would be gone. When for 220 years all you have ever know is bloodshed and murder as a standard way of living what do you expect. Haiti and the Dominican Republic share the same island, both have a history of slavery yet they are different worlds … why because it’s just how Haiti is. Do you think the other Caribbean countries ( and African countries) are stupid not to get involved… no they just realise that you could deploy 1 million soldiers invest a trillion dollars, have all the democratic elections you want .. 5 years after you leave … gangs will be back and Haiti would be back in the same hole it’s been in for 200 years!
Kenya and other troops not welcome in Haiti 🇭🇹. Haitian can solve this problem themselves.
Kim Ives has a good historical understanding of revolutions and applies that well to the Haitian situation. Professor Pierre also provides great insights into what's going on. Thanks for having them on.
But, the problems are still the same. talk is cheap my friend.
INDEED, HAITI 🇭🇹 CRISIS CANNOT BE SOLVED WITH MILITARY FORCES. IT NEEDS A SOCIO-ECONOMIC SOLUTION, ONCE AND FOR ALL.
It’s not stable enough for an economy atm.
You can not have socioeconomic solutions until the people are actually ready to be in an advanced economy. Unfortunately Hati isn't ready for that
Name the countries who should give Haiti aid. Please exclude Cananda and the US.
Dont let anyone from the outside rule you, for no reason or to sexually assault women and children and blane it on the locals 👀. We,ve seen this before in other places. Protect yourself in the Light☀️✨ Let black people live without bs interference for economical reasons.
Ariel Henry needs to be put in jail for creating all those chaos in Haiti. It is so sad that he is being supported by those international governments despite of his illegitimacies.
Keep
This Statement in mind
“The majority of weapons smuggled into Haiti is from Florida” …..
Yes because how else would they ever get common devices that are essentially a box of springs & tubes (& as self loading magazine fed firearms are literally late 1800s technology) in 2024😆
@@johnnyshanksalot8358 I mean is just a fact that all the guns they get are American made through Florida. Why try to deny reality?
Florida yes but who is smuggling the weapons
@THEREALVICTOR1 USA duh. And China is paying those Kenyan mercenaries as the opposition.
@@AnaSpeirs I see you blame US China and Kenya Haitians are saints even when they abuse terroised and kill the poor on their soil
HE WAS NOT KIDNAPPED. HE WAS CHILLING THE WHOLE TIME!!!!!🤨🧐
What a counsel! They are better stay in Jamaica or come to US. They are not going to be welcome in Haiti. We all say no to foreign intervention, and we all want Guy Philippe for the president to lead the transition so he can restore the security and organize the election.
While I understand Haitians not wanting outside interuption in their politics; they have not provided any concrete plan to stablize the country. There is no balance, therefore, it make me question if they know what they really want as a nation.
Lots of complaining with no actual plan.
Haiti ought to bring forth a plan on how they intend to stabalize their country; which certainly they will get the assistance they vitally need to move forward, without any further incident.
Action speaks louder than word.
Haitians, show the world your love of country.
This is not a Revolution, this is Destruction.
Over 200 hundred years to actually lose for what you fought for?
What are your plans (Haiti) for the next 100 years? Or you (Haiti) is not looking that far?
Make it make sense.
So, you agree that the masters of the evil empire have recurrently used different strategies to destabilize Haiti by interfering in the elections, by placing puppets into highest political position, and by flowing war guns and ammunitions to Haiti to destabilize the country? You can read. Do your own research. With Google, it is easy. Don't be intellectually lazy.
This so-called expert has lost credibility for me based upon her comments last time when she stated that the Kenyans do not speak English. She also blamed everyone except for the Haitian leadership and gatekeepers!
She said they speak English not Haitian Creole therefore they are of no help and their motives from the get go is money not actual help... Stop lying
Put her in charge. Let her play out her plans to end the violence, restore a legitimate Haitian government, open the airport, sea ports and continue trade. Let Haiti’s population restore order
PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE THIS GUY A GLASS OF WATER.
I like the way Professor Pierre thinks. She sounds wise.
CARICOM don’t have any authority to dictate what we can do as country.
Yeah but women and children are clearly in distress. What should the world do because Haiti seems unable to function. How does it self correct? I see so much of this push back from Haitians but shit is desparate out there and noone in Haiti is standing up and saying enough with killing kids and women.
Good morning, haitiens people say they don't need any forces coming to Haiti
Any foreign force shouldn’t be allowed to the country.
