Haiti - FLASH : UN proposes a new mission in Haiti
While the end of the mandate of the UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti (Minustah) expires on April 15 (in Haiti since 2004), Antonio Guterres, the new Secretary General of the United Nations recommended in a report, that the funds remaining for the Minustah, be used for an additional short mission of 6 months. A recommendation that will be discussed by the member countries of the UN Security Council on April 11, countries that are favorable to the withdrawal but are divided on the presence of the United Nations after the end of Mission of the Minustah. The vote of the Security Council on this report, scheduled for April 15 in New York, will decide on the future presence or not of the United Nations in Haiti.

Guterres recommends that this new mission, whose mandate ends on 15 October 2017, focuses on strengthening the Haitian National Police (PNH) and the dysfunctional Haitian judicial system. The report stresses that such a strategy would reduce the possibility of repeating the failures of past transitions, such as the rapid decline in PNH capacity and large-scale public disturbances, as was the case at the close of the operation UN Peacekeeping in Haiti, on March 2000.

This new mission would not involve military personnel, whose the 2,370 military would gradually withdraw in totality ; It will be staffed with a reduced civilian staff of 50% and a UNPol police force of only 295 members, in charge, in particular, of supervising and advising the senior officials of the PNH.
