“U.S. policy toward Haiti is designed to foster and strengthen democracy; help alleviate poverty, illiteracy, and malnutrition; promote respect for human rights; and counter illegal migration and drug trafficking. The U.S. also supports and facilitates bilateral trade and investment along with legal migration and travel. U.S. policy goals are met through direct bilateral action and by working with the international community. The United States has taken a leading role in organizing international involvement with Haiti.”
The US is making a consious effort to help out the Haitian people and form relations with them. The Haitian people are accepting and befriending the gestures made by the U.S. governement. I feel that because the U.S and Haiti are making the initiative to become allies it is one less enemy America has to worry about. However, I feel that the US cannot and will not be firends with every country and in turn cannot help out every country as much as the other countries, for example, Haiti, needs to be helped out. Haiti is a struggling country and needs to reconstruct current laws and policys in order to sustain there way of living…or as of right now their lack of surviving.
