The Donald Trump administration freezing funding to Haiti is a sound move for the glaring fact that they don’t have a government to manage the funding.
We were wondering how agencies like the World Bank were still sending funding to the beleaguered nation when they have not had a government in nearly four years. Who was receiving the money and what kind of work could they have been doing if there was no governmental supervision? You can make up your own mind on what happened to the money.
But, in light of the US spending freeze, the Trump administration should not take its eyes off of Haiti. It is a loose country and anyone and anything can get in and out of there. Terrorists, drugs, guns, bombs, you name it.
I would encourage the Trump administration to keep close surveillance on Haiti, for their own benefit.
A word to the wise.
