This document outlines two pivotal options for international involvement in the nation beset by instability and violence. The stakes are high, and a unified global response is imperative to reinstate stability and security in Haiti.

One of the proposals outlined in the report involves offering logistical support to a multinational force working closely with Haitian police units. The primary goal would be to enhance the operational capabilities of local law enforcement while drawing on international reinforcement and expertise. This strategy has the potential to curtail criminal activities and gradually establish stability in the country.

Another considered approach entails bolstering the UN’s existing political mission in Haiti. This avenue places greater emphasis on the political aspect of the conflict, aiming to foster dialogue and peaceful resolution of tensions. This path could potentially establish enduring stability by actively involving all stakeholders in constructive negotiations.

Antonio Guterres emphasizes the need to explore the establishment of a robust force, combining elements of multinational police with military resources, to address the alarming situation in Haiti. The armed groups contributing to the nation’s instability necessitate a resolute and coordinated response. However, the Secretary-General also acknowledges that a United Nations-led force should not oversee such an intervention, considering the negative connotations associated with previous UN missions in Haiti.

Remarkably, Kenya has volunteered to spearhead this international mission. Involvement by an African nation could offer a distinct perspective, taking into account the unique challenges and opportunities present in the region. Similarly, Jamaica and the Bahamas are also preparing to contribute by deploying troops to support this collaborative endeavor for the benefit of Haiti.
