  • Last weekend, Port-au-Prince was shaken by an uncontrollable spiral of violence.
  • An armed command burst onto the coast of Wharf Jerémie, resulting in the massacre of at least 184 people.
  • Violence in Haiti has been normalized, exacerbating the crisis.
  • The collapse of the Haitian state, accelerated by corruption, power struggles, and poverty, has allowed gangs to fill an institutional void.
  • International focus is split between the Middle East and Ukraine, limiting the assistance provided to Haiti.
  • The international community needs to become more involved and consider the approval of a peacekeeping force.
