![]() Haiti - Security : 180 degree turn of the position of Minister of Justice on the former FAd'H 24/03/2012 10:37:55
Friday, the Minister in a statement, made a 180 degree turn and now advocates the dialogue, convinced that it will not be necessary to use force... "The police is there to restore order, the police is there to enforce the law so we are in a situation where the law is violated [...] the police must be prepared, but I must tell you, that the dialogue remains the priority, they are Haitians who are looking for jobs, so the dialogue is and remains the priority [...] For several weeks, there is a Commission which maintains contact with these men in fatigues and sometimes armed.
