Haiti - Earthquake 2010 : Message from the Embassy of Germany 12/01/2020 08:15:59
Message from the German Embassy in Haiti : "The German Embassy would like to express its deepest sympathies and its closeness to the entire Haitian people. The physical damage and mental suffering... "On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the devastating earthquake of January 12, 2010, the Embassy of Germany wishes to express its deepest sympathies and its proximity to the entire Haitian people who, in all its components, have been the victim,neear or far, of this unforgiving natural disaster. The physical damage and moral suffering caused by this earthquake still leaves scars, which for some people will probably last a lifetime. One of the things that caught the attention of Embassy colleagues, who were there at the time, was this impressive movement of solidarity among Haitians that was observed immediately after the disaster. Before aid from outside arrived, the Haitians, with the means at hand, took care of themselves, illustrating this popular belief 'Pwoblèm nou youn se pou nou tout'. Numerous were the articles written in national and international newspapers and the images, relayed in loop, which emphasized the resilience of the Haitian people, their faith, against all hope, in better tomorrows and their capacity not to fall arms in the circumstances where many would have abandoned everything. As we commemorate the memory of the missing and pay tribute to the victims of January 12, 2010, the German Embassy expresses the wish that this spirit of solidarity and resilience continue to prevail in all spheres of activity of the Haitian Nation and that they ultimately lead to a better future for the entire population."
