I've been working in and on around Haiti for 30 years now and I've never ever seen it this bad. It's actually kind of straw fake it being the human rights situation in a tatarian situation the lack of any kind of political anything discussions negotiations could needs to be an international force of sub shape size and formed because of Haitian National Police is not powerful enough to take on the gangs themselves are all kinds of reasons for that. You have another problem that the US needs to do in terms of being more active and assertive stopping the flow of guns and Munitions to Haiti. There's not a single gun or bullet that's manufactured in Haiti almost all of it comes to the United States a lot of it directly from the Port of Miami. So it comes from the United States through either Jamaica or the Dominican Republic but basically all gets traced back to United States. That's something we could do right now. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Haitian Prime Minister Tries to Return Home to Quell Explosion of Gang Violence","description":"Authorities have ordered a nighttime curfew in an attempt to regain control of Haiti's streets after an explosion of violence during the weekend, including gunmen from gangs overrunning the country's two biggest prisons and freeing their inmates.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/TT6wELRy/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2024-03-06T19:38:49.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/TT6wELRy.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/video/TT6wELRy/","duration":"PT1M26S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/video/TT6wELRy/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}} ```
