As the Kenyan peace force is set to leave Haiti, Nadia Massih is pleased to welcome Dr. Rosa Freedman, Professor of Law Conflict and Global Development at the University of Reading. She argues that the crisis in Haiti reflects deep structural failures, not just “gang violence.” She calls the Kenyan mission “a profound failure from the outset” and says “anyone… who understands Haiti knew that this was doomed to failure.” Gangs, she notes, are “not a homogeneous group of criminals” but part of “layers of collusion and corruption.” Ultimately, she urges “Haitian solutions for Haitian problems,” warning that without addressing root causes, including "to remedy the sovereign debt that has left it in this dire financial situation," interventions will keep failing.
