During her visit to Haiti, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield announced $60 million in humanitarian aid aimed at alleviating suffering caused by gang violence and supporting critical needs such as nutrition, food security, and shelter. This funding brings the total U.S. humanitarian support for Haiti this fiscal year to over $165 million. Additionally, the U.S. Defense Department will provide mine-resistant vehicles to a multinational security mission led by Kenya, which aims to assist Haiti's national police in combating armed gangs that have displaced over 578,000 people. Thomas-Greenfield emphasized the importance of political reforms and urged the Haitian government to quickly establish a credible electoral council for upcoming elections, the first of which have not been held since 2016. The visit comes as the country grapples with a complex humanitarian crisis exacerbated by civil unrest and widespread violence. Despite these challenges, Thomas-Greenfield expressed a sense of hope for progress in Haiti's future.
