The crisis in Haiti requires an “international response” like Ukraine or Gaza. Antony Blinken spoke with the head of the Haitian government about the “urgent need to accelerate the transition to a broader and inclusive government,” Brian Nichols, senior State Department official told the press.

The situation in Haiti called for “an international response, in the same way as the international community” in Ukraine and Gaza, Nichols said. The head of American diplomacy spoke Thursday March 7 with Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry and pleaded for a political transition.
