Haiti - Reconstruction : Port-au-Prince is the worst place where to rebuild
Approached to lead the UN mission in Haiti and then rejected in favor of Chilean Mariano Fernández, the former Foreign Minister of France, Bernard Kouchner, on a conference tour in Montreal said "You can not rebuild in Port-au-Prince, is a cul-de-sac !".

For Mr. Kouchner, co-founder of Doctors Without Borders physician and founder of Médecin du Monde the international community makes a mistake by focusing the reconstruction of Haiti in the capital destroyed by the earthquake in 2010. "We always rebuilt in the same place, the one who was hit, and that's the error" amented Mr Kouchner who is convinced that the international community should concentrate its efforts outside the capital, in the medium-sized cities.

It recognizes that it is a proposition very difficult to achieve, that the significant presence of NGOs, who have created "a state within a state," complicates the situation but that it is to the Haitians to take the necessary decisions. Standing firm on his position, Port-au-Prince remains for him the "worst place where to rebuild"
