Haiti - Security : Brazil withdraws from Minustah, Ambassador bring clarifications 03/02/2017 08:31:34
Following our article published Tuesday on the withdrawal of Brazil from the Minustah, https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-19968-haiti-security-brazil-withdraws-from-minustah.html the Ambassador of Brazil to Haiti Fernando Vidal wanted to bring clarifications, that his country had not begun to withdraw its military contingent from the Minustah "[...] no decision in this regard has been taken by the Brazilian Government. The Brazilian military contingent of the Minustah is fully operational and continues to perform its functions in accordance with the mandate given to the mission by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).
The Brazilian government remains fully committed to the objectives of the Minustah, and is awaiting the decision of the Security Council regarding the future of the mission after the end of the current mandate, which expires on April 15th. In this regard, the Brazilian Ministry of Defense has already begun the preparation of the next military contingent that will eventually be sent to Haiti, if necessary."
