According to a statement from the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM), there has been no determination yet on how many members of the ABDF will be dispatched to Haiti.<\/p>\n<p>However, the OPM highlighted the commitment of Prime Minister Gaston Browne to finding a solution to the problems facing Haiti. Browne presented at the UNGA and voiced concerns over the increasing dominance of gangs and the consequent human rights crisis in Haiti.<\/p>\n<p>Browne emphasized the urgent need for a comprehensive, coordinated intervention that concurrently restores governance, security, and the rule of law while resolving the humanitarian needs. He also stressed the need for a broad-based transitional government to provide necessary leadership with external assistance to restore order and bring lasting peace and prosperity to the Haitian people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Antigua and Barbuda has announced its decision to send a military contingent to Haiti to help restore law and order in the country.
