Haiti - FLASH : Kenyan Commander reassures on the continuation of the Mission in Haiti
On Wednesday, February 5, 2025, Godfrey Otunge, the Commander-in-Chief of the Multinational Security Support Mission (MMSS) in Haiti, made it clear in a note that the freeze of the 13.3 million dollars from the United States, https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-44211-haiti-flash-the-united-states-freezes-its-funding-for-the-mission-in-haiti.html is not the freeze of American aid to the Mission.

"[...] The MSS mission in Haiti remains a priority for the U.S. government. As with any transition in government, structural adjustments are expected.

The USA government has also a waiver to the Executive Order on INL support to MSS.The U.S. and other partner countries continue to provide logistical, financial, and equipment support to the MSS, with support flights arriving almost daily. Both the Department of Defense and the Department of State rem a in actively engaged in MSS operations.

I want to assure everyone, especially the people of Haiti, that the mission remains on track. This is evidenced by the arrivai of the El Salvador contingent yesterday https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-44210-haiti-flash-arrival-of-a-new-contingent-of-70-salvadoran-soldiers-video.html , the anticipated arrivai of the fourth Kenyan contingent tomorrow [this Thursday] https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-44218-haiti-flash-a-new-kenyan-contingent-heading-to-haiti.html and the expected delivery of CASEVAC and MEDEVAC helicopters from El Salvador by the end of this week.
