Leaders of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) have reaffirmed their dedication to resolving the problems impacting Haiti in the long run.
The authorities in charge of Haiti gathered yesterday under the leadership of the Prime Minister of the Bahamas, Philip Davis, to hear a report from Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness, who led a trip to the nation on February 27.

The team spoke with a wide spectrum of Haitian stakeholders to get their opinions on what might be done to find a long-term solution to the nation’s difficulties, according to a statement from the CARICOM Secretariat.
The statement noted, “The Leaders agreed that there must be a follow-up meeting with the stakeholders to chart a path to consensus building in order to bring peace and stability to the country.”
CARICOM made the decision to support the Haitian National Police’s efforts to address the security challenges for the time being. The Community will place a specific priority on offering training to the HNP as well as humanitarian help to the HNP and the greater Haitian people in light of the challenging humanitarian and security situation in Haiti.
“They also agreed to work with the Governments of Canada and the United States as well as the UNDP on the ongoing issues and, at the upcoming Spring Meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, to approach both International Financial Institutions to ascertain what further assistance they could provide to Haiti.”
The leaders also want to request aid from African nations in order to resolve the problem in Haiti.
