The US Embassy In Haiti Has Ordered All Americans In The Country To Leave Immedi by olatade(m): 6:06am On Aug 31, 2023
The US Embassy in Haiti has ordered all Americans in the country to leave immediately due to the ongoing political instability and civil unrest. The embassy said in a statement that the security situation in Haiti has deteriorated significantly in recent days and that there is a high risk of violence and kidnapping.

Here are some of the specific incidents that have led to the US Embassy's decision to order all Americans to leave Haiti:

On July 7, 2021, President Jovenel Moïse was assassinated in his home by a group of armed men.

On August 14, 2021, Prime Minister Ariel Henry was appointed by the Haitian government to succeed Moïse.

On September 17, 2021, a group of armed men attacked the Haitian National Palace, but were repelled by security forces.

On October 17, 2021, a gang blockaded the main road leading to the Haitian capital, Port-au-Prince, in protest of the government's failure to address the country's security crisis.

On November 13, 2021, a gang kidnapped 17 members of a US-based missionary group in Port-au-Prince. The group was later released.

On December 17, 2021, a gang kidnapped 16 people, including two US citizens, in Port-au-Prince. The victims were later released.

The current political crisis in Haiti began in July 2021, when President Jovenel Moïse was assassinated. Since then, there has been no clear successor to Moïse, and the country has been in a state of political limbo. This has led to widespread protests and violence, and the security situation has deteriorated significantly.

Self-made crisis, Africans are too backward. What you currently have may be far better than what you're pushing for. If there's a need for a change of government, then do it legitimately.
