A mission from the Organization of American States has arrived in Haiti amid concerns about the country’s political, security and human rights situation
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti -- A mission from the Organization of American States arrived in Haiti on Tuesday amid concerns over what it called the country’s grave political, security and human rights situation. The OAS said the three-day trip is aimed at securing free and fair elections scheduled for September and November as President Jovenel Moïse continues to rule by decree for more than a year. The trip comes amid a sharp increase in coronavirus cases across Haiti and a resurgence in gang violence in the capital of Port-au-Prince that recently displaced hundreds of families, some of whom are living in public parks and outdoor sports fields. Moïse said that he met with the mission and that their discussions centered on Haiti’s security and health situation.More Related News
