International Campaign of Solidarity with Haiti



Sign our statement to join us in solidarity with the Haitian People and against foreign intervention!
During the last four years, the Haitian people have been in permanent mobilizations against the mass impoverishment of the people, the unjust inequalities that force much of the population to live in inhumane conditions, and against the economic privileges enjoyed by a small minority. In particular, the Haitian people have mobilized against rising inflation and fuel prices and, more recently, rejected the calls for foreign intervention that have been illegitimately requested by US-backed Prime Minister Ariel Henry.
Today Haiti is facing a possible new military occupation by the UN, similar to what occurred between 2004 and 2017 through the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH). In this regard, the statements of the Secretary General of the organization, Antonio Guterres, who has asked the Security Council to approve said military intervention, in addition to the recent arrival of military planes sent by the governments of Canada and the United States, are worrying.
It is especially noteworthy that the reasons why the Henry government and the United Nations justify this possible military intervention are caused precisely by previous occupations on the island, such as the spread of cholera and the humanitarian crisis caused by the numerous cases of sexual and human rights violations committed by UN Peacekeepers against the civilian population.
We urge the international community, the regional integration mechanisms such as the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States CELAC, and in particular, the popular and progressive governments of the Americas, to categorically reject these new occupation attempts in Haiti and reject any attempt at interference. Referring to the principles of International Law of non-intervention, equal rights, self-determination of peoples, and sovereign equality enshrined in Resolution 2625 of the United Nations General Assembly; the solution to Haiti’s domestic problems must be promoted by the Haitian people themselves without any type of foreign intervention, and prioritizing sovereignty, self-determination, and democracy in the country.
For a dignified and sovereign Haiti, free from occupation!
