Haiti’s Election Race Amid Security Crisis | Jamaica News
Description
Haiti’s political crisis deepens as André Michel warns that without restored security, armed gangs will dominate the upcoming elections—calling for immediate road clearances and urging voters to register before power slips into the hands of militias. Amid international pressure from OAS and CARICOM, Prime Minister vows elections this year, with key votes set for December 13th. The assassination of President Moise in 2021 left a vacuum, prompting Michel to push for global accountability. Meanwhile, Germany is backing a UN-backed Gang Suppression Force, pledging air support for troops from Chad, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh, aiming for full deployment of 5,000 personnel by October to secure routes and expand operations beyond Port-au-Prince—laying groundwork for safer elections.
