SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 7 – In Haiti, hold-over
president Jovenel Moises has
been assassinated. The
Dominican Republic has ordered
its border with the country
closed.
In the
United Nations, which ran a
large "peacekeeping" mission
in Haiti which beyond failing
brought in cholera and killed
10,000 Haitians, while
refusing to compensate any of
the impoverished families who
lost their bread-winners,
there are sure to be belated
statements of
concern.
There may
be an emergency meeting of the
UN Security Council, whose
trip to Haiti Inner City Press
covered, here,
before being
banned from the UN and
its briefings by Secretary
General Antonio Guterres.
Most
recently, Guterres' spokespeople
Stephane Dujarric and Farhan
Haq have refused to answer
Inner City Press' written
questions about new cases of
UN sexual abuse in Haiti, here.
But talk is
cheap. Watch this site.
