|
The United States on Friday formally obtained broad military powers to oversee all Haitian air and sea ports and to secure Haitian roads in support of international relief efforts, according to an agreement signed in Haiti by the United States and the United Nations.
The pact gives Haitian authorities and the U.N. peacekeeping mission in Haiti primary responsibility for maintaining law and order in the earthquake-ravaged country. But it grants the United States broad scope to intervene in civil disturbances, subject to a request by Haitian authorities.
The agreement says American authorities will establish a U.S. Joint Task Force Haiti to support the international humanitarian response. The task force will have responsibility for ensuring a functioning transportation system in Haiti and ensuring access to the country's air and sea ports and roads.
Friday's pact simply formalizes powers that the U.S. military has already been exercising in Haiti. It is also intended to clarify the division of powers among three separate forces: the Haitian police, the U.N. peacekeeping mission and the U.S. military.
The agreement states that the U.S. military will remain under the "autonomous" American chain of command but that U.S. authorities will "take into account and, as appropriate, fully support priority humanitarian and logistical requirements identified by the United Nations in their response activities."
The pact, which was not signed by Haitian leadership, says Haiti welcomes U.S. efforts "to support the immediate recovery, stability and long-term rebuilding of Haiti." It also states that the United States is "prepared to assist as needed in augmenting security in support of the government and people of Haiti and the United Nations, international partners and organizations on the ground."

U.S. officials said the absence of Haiti's signature on the security agreement does not mean that Haitians are being excluded from the decision-making. They said they have already spelled out the terms of the U.S. military presence in a Jan. 17 communique with the Haitian government and that they needed to establish a clear division of labor with the growing U.N. peacekeeping force.
"This agreement formalizes the working relationship between the United States and the United Nations on the ground in Haiti and ensures that this cooperation will continue in the challenging days and weeks ahead," said Susan E. Rice, U.S. ambassador to United Nations.
The pact spells out broad responsibilities for the United Nations, including a role in "ensuring a secure and stable environment" in Haiti and assisting Haiti in the restoration of the "rule of law, public safety and public order." It also spells out a role for U.N. mission in "protecting civilians under imminent threat of physical violence within its capabilities and areas of deployment."

Looks like Preval is upset. Shit is over guys, US is in total charge and they do this without Preval because as we see it this is a de facto protectorate of US. Thank you Obama, Ambassador Rice. Thank you. USA USA USA!!!!

Essentially, this means USA don't give two shits if Preval or FRANCE don't like it they are taking over. GOD BLESS AMERICA, thank you Obama thank you Ambassador Rice.
So France did not get their wish in the UN.
PRESIDENT OBAMA IF YOU CAN FIND SOME JUSTIFICATION TO ALLOW ME TO SIGN FOR STATEHOOD PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL I WILL FLY TO WASHINGTON TO SIGN OFF FOR THE PEOPLE OF HAITI!!!! _________________ Statehood or Bust |

I love this. But we have to be careful here. This is not first time the US promises Haiti hope and at the end we end up the same way.
Believe it, i love what i'm hearing so far.
I know the elite will always be protected, but the mass also has to have a better life.
That's what should have happened 15 years ago when t Clinton got rid of Sedras and Returned Asritide.
Just Mete Government officials chita tankou pope twel epi pou Haiti pouse pou pi devan.
Investe pral fe mikalaw in the next ten years, si fet jan yo di a vre.
If there is a guy who don't believe in Haitians in power se mwen menm.

I am so upset right now that so many of you want so called haitians want the country to become a US territory. The feelings that are being express by some of you explain why so many haitians in the past have sold the country a few million dollars. _________________ THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OPINION AND FACTS. |
