United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres is urging the international community to deploy a robust Multinational force to Haiti to combat the escalating gang violence. Guterres states that a specialized multinational police force, supported by military assets and coordinated with the national police, is needed to address the situation. Kenya has expressed interest in leading the multinational force, and other countries such as the Bahamas, Jamaica, and Antigua and Barbuda have offered support. Guterres offers two options for UN support: logistical assistance for the multinational force and strengthening the UN special political mission in Haiti. The violence has resulted in displacement, hunger, and fear among the Haitian population.
