This comes after President William Ruto on March 15 announced a plan to deploy a reconnaissance mission as soon as a viable administration is in place in Haiti.
Ruto held telephone conversations with Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of The Bahamas Philip Davis, representing the Caribbean Community and Common Market as well as Haiti’s outgoing Prime Minister Ariel Henry.
This was regarding ongoing violence in Haiti in the wake of the resignation of Henry as the prime minister.
“During our discussions, I conveyed our unwavering commitment to supporting Haiti, emphasising that they are our brothers and sisters.”
“I assured them that we will remain actively involved and we will not abandon Haiti in their time of need,” Ruto said in a post on X.
He said he outlined Kenya’s plan to deploy a reconnaissance mission as soon as a viable administration is in place, assuring that the security personnel are adequately prepared and informed to respond effectively to the evolving situation.
There is ongoing diplomatic pressure for a UN-backed team to be deployed to Haiti as soon as possible.
