WASHINGTON– The Organization of American States (OAS) is pleading for urgency to continue working to increase Haiti’s security and begin the democratization process.
The OAS said in a statement that the institutional crisis Haiti is currently experiencing is “a direct result of the actions taken by the country’s endogenous forces and the international community.
“The last 20 years of the international community’s presence in Haiti has amounted to one of the worst and most apparent failures implemented and executed within the framework of any international cooperation.
“This is not to blame the individuals who, with a vocation for service and altruism, worked as co-operators and did their best, sometimes giving their lives, for Haiti. These persons deserve our greatest respect and remembrance,” the OAS said.
