Editorial: Sending troops into Haiti is not the answer
South Florida Sun Sentinel Editorial Board
Haiti needs many things at the moment. American soldiers are not among them.
Interim Prime Minister Claude Joseph asked for U.S. military help after the assassination of President Jovenel Moise. We understand the request, but it’s one that President Biden should refuse.
If the troops would go to provide security, how long would they stay? Haiti hasn’t been a secure country for decades, much less a free one. And what would be the rules of engagement? No one knows for sure who planned and financed Moise’s killing. Given the labyrinthian nature of Haitian politics, soldiers could become targets for competing factions.
