Campaigners denounce attempts to force an armed intervention on Haiti
MORE than a dozen campaign organisations joined forces on Tuesday to denounce attempts to force an armed intervention on Haiti.
The 13 groups, which come together under the umbrella Zone of Peace Campaign, include Black Alliance for Peace, Caribbean Movement for Peace and Integration, Caribbean Organisation for People’s Empowerment and the Nicaragua Solidarity Coalition.
The campaign argues that Western imperialists are trying to force an armed intervention on the people of Haiti and they slam the “collaboration” of regional institutions such as the Caricom economic bloc and the interference of the United States.
