The security situation continues to deteriorate in Haiti, and the political future remains uncertain following the conditional resignation announcement of the dysfunctional government under Ariel Henry. Haitians await assistance to return to a better situation but also worry about all the ineffective aid that has led to the current impasses. Haitians dream of receiving real, concrete, and useful assistance. Haitians want to break free from the cycle of announcements, promises, and progress hailed by donors but invisible to those who suffer and hope. In recent years, support for Ariel Henry has been consistent yet lukewarm. Assistance to the Haitian National Police has been consistent but weak. Interference in Haitian affairs has been constant and clumsy. Can't we do better? Since 2010, friendly countries and organizations have donated billions of dollars to Haiti. Often, the sums exist only on paper. The funded projects are truly useful only for the donors. And since neither the Haitian governments nor the population demand accountability, trickery, subterfuge, and sleight of hand have become the norm. Aid, assistance, and donations are invisible, having no effect on the daily lives of Haitian men and women. In the past fifteen years, only a handful of major projects have been completed. There are a thousand explanations to justify the failures, and many shortcomings stem from Haitian incapacity. But Haiti does not dance the tango of inefficiency alone. Take security, for example. Thirty months ago, a hundred advisors, stationed within the national police or its elite units, could have made our law enforcement more effective. Nothing of the sort has been implemented. For the past thirty months, an allocation of necessary equipment and monitoring of its use could have given the PNH a decisive advantage. Nothing of the sort has been noted. The announcements of aid could fill libraries, but neither in terms of manpower, material resources, nor operationally has the Haitian National Police been able to meet the population's expectations for improving the security situation. Now, as we talk about a multinational security support mission and a new government, we must be careful not to reproduce the traditional patterns that lead to chronic inefficiency. Haitians have much to answer for and must take matters into their own hands, but they will not succeed if an examination of failures is not conducted by the ineffective donors.
