CARICOM made the decision to support the Haitian National Police’s efforts to address the security challenges for the time being. The Community will place a specific priority on offering training to the HNP as well as humanitarian help to the HNP and the greater Haitian people in light of the challenging humanitarian and security sittuation in Haiti.

“They also agreed to work with the Governments of Canada and the United States as well as the UNDP on the ongoing issues and, at the upcoming Spring Meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, to approach both International Financial Institutions to ascertain what further assistance they could provide to Haiti.”

The leaders also want to request aid from African nations in order to resolve the problem in Haiti.
