Port-au-Prince, May 27 (RHC)-- The Haitian Presidential Transition Council has announced on the creation of the National Security Council, the body responsible for “defining and overseeing decisions regarding international security assistance,” as established by UN Security Council Resolution 2699.

The entity revealed in a statement released on Sunday that this entity will carry out its mission in close consultation with all political factors in Haiti, as well as with both national and international experts.

The creation of this National Security Council is a step prior to the arrival of the Multilateral Security Support Mission of Haiti, approved by the UN Security Council in October 2023 and led by Kenya, made up of military personnel and police officers from several countries supposedly committed to the stability of the Caribbean country.

Coinciding with the worsening of the sociopolitical situation due to the overflow of criminal activities of the armed gangs that still control a large part of the country and its capital, the US government increased the donation of material to strengthen the operational level of the Haitian Police.

In compliance with this, on May 21st, a new batch of ten armored vehicles was received, adding to three others and non-lethal security equipment that arrived in the Haitian nation ten days earlier.
