Haiti is an unfortunate failed experiment and as I have written in the past, much of the damage was done by international bodies and figures, including the Clintons. The UN has done its share of the damage and the Haitian government more and more just looks like a rebranded version of the United Nations.
U.N. development specialist Garry Conille was named Haiti’s new prime minister Tuesday evening, nearly a month after a coalition within a fractured transitional council sought to choose someone else for the position.
Conille has been UNICEF’s regional director for Latin America and the Caribbean since January 2023 and previously served as Haiti’s prime minister from October 2011 to May 2012 under then President Michel Martelly. He replaces Michel Patrick Boisvert, who was named interim prime minister after Ariel Henry resigned via letter in late April.
Prime Minister of Haiti is currently about as appealing a job as 99 Cent Store manager in South Central, but even so what’s left of the council hasn’t so much named a leader as a guy best able to secure foreign aid.
And that’s the best possible interpretation of the situation. The worst is that Haiti’s government is indistinguishable from international organizations like the UN. And that’s part of the problem.
The rest of the world can’t fix Haiti. But the so-called international community does have a bad habit of going to third-world countries, building an entire establishment of nonprofit groups to provide aid, who become interchangeable with the government and widely hated because they’re the largest source of income, even as all measures for fixing the place have to be run through them.
That approach has backfired all over the world. Including in Afghanistan. It certainly isn’t helping Haiti.
Just today I watched a video with AOC challenging Mr Homan, formerly head of US border control. I Know zero about US law but it seemed to me she was quoting the UN and applying it to the US border situation as if US law did not exist.
If you’re a moral person, you have to feel compassion for Haitians. If you’re a rational person you know Haiti’s history shows they’re a disaster of their own making, and the rest of the world owes them nothing.
The other half of the island is the Dominican Republic and they’re not only doing well, economic projections are very positive. Why? Let them fix their problem or not, and wasting untold millions to fix the unfixable is just more progressive lunacy, and catering to stupid globalists along with the dumber than a tree stump media.
One more thing. Why isn’t the Dominican Republic accepting many Haitian refugees? The same reason Egypt and the rest of the Muslim world won’t accept Palestinian refugees. They’re a lot of trouble!
