Kenya’s President William Ruto says the upcoming Multinational Security Support (MSS) mission to Haiti will leave a different kind of “footprint”, signaling use of lessons learnt from previous failed bids to stabilise the troubled Caribbean country.
The UN Security Council (UNSC) on Monday authorised the deployment of MSS, passing Resolution 2699/23 with a vote of 13 members and two abstentions (China and Russia). The MSS is to be led by Kenya who will prepare 1,000 police personnel to be sent to Haiti to quell gang violence.
