Haiti is facing a security and governance crisis, reflected in the resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry, the threat of civil war, and control by organized crime groups.
Ariel Henry, lacked popular legitimacy and his tenure was largely propped up by Western nations, primarily the United States.
The intervention of Western nations has led to mistrust due to their past actions in Haiti, including the spread of cholera and sexual abuses.
Forming a transition council in a gang-ruled capital and rebuilding security and democratic order are Haiti's immediate challenges.
Haiti's organized crime issue intertwines with global issues like arms trafficking from the United States and political influence of gangs.
Conclusion: Haiti's future necessitates international intervention, but in a more effective format than in the past, ensuring Haitians feel ownership of their destiny while effectively managing transnational organized crime.
