Le Secrétaire général de l’Organisation des États Américains (OEA), Albert R. Ramdin, a présenté aujourd’hui au Conseil permanent une Feuille de route complète visant à apporter des solutions concrètes à la grave crise sécuritaire et institutionnelle en Haïti, tout en renforçant la coordination de la coopération internationale et régionale.

Top Haitian ministers called for urgent security support from neighbors at a meeting of the Organization of American States (OAS) on Thursday, while the U.S. signaled it would not continue current funding aimed at holding back the nation's armed gangs. "While we remain determined to assist the Haitian people achieve the peace, security and prosperity they deserve, the United States cannot continue shouldering such a significant financial burden," U.S. Caribbean Affairs deputy assistant secretary Barbara Feinstein said at the meeting. The U.S. has cut much overseas aid and frozen some funding it earlier pledged to support a U.N.-backed mission in Haiti, and earlier this week Secretary of State Marco Rubio suggested that OAS should play a greater role in supporting Haiti's security, such as mobilizing a force.
