Kenya’s Haiti operation might morph into UN peacekeeping mission
There are reports that the Kenya mission in Haiti might turn into a U.N. peacekeeping operation. The Associated Press reports that an official with the White House National Security Council has confirmed that plans are under consideration to alter the nature of the force. A contingent of Kenyan police officers arrived in Haiti two months ago to head a largely U.S.-funded multinational security force. Johanna Leblanc, a national security law & foreign relations expert, tells VOA’s Douglas Mpuga, the US government should be cautious about this approach.
