The Security Council provided in October 2023 green light to PAVA, whose leading Kenya was led to face the gangs in Haiti
The government of USA required United Nations Immediately freezing the use of US funds allocated to fund multinational funding, which assigned the support of the Aitarian Police to tackle gangs, while the mission was already facing underfunding problems, a well -known UN spokesman Tuesday.
“We have received an official notice from the US for immediate suspension of their contribution” to a Special Fund created by the UN for the financing of the multinational Safety Support Mission (PAVA) “, said the Showerreferring to this move, for example, for the broader freeze of US aid announced by President Donald Trump.
The UN Security Council gave October 2023 a green light to PAVA, whose leading Kenya was led, to help police to confront the gangs in Haiti.
Although PAFA is not its own mission, the UN has set up a special fund to raise a voluntary funding on which a total of $ 110 million was deposited – an amount is generally inadequate.
With $ 15 million, the US made its second biggest contribution to this fund, behind him Canada (63 million).
Of the $ 15m made by Washington, some $ 1.7m have already been spent, Stephani Duzarik said, adding that the remaining amount, $ 13.3m, is now frozen.
In addition to the money allocated to the UN, the government of the previous US president Joe Biden It offered more than $ 300 million directly to PAVA in funds and equipment, including dozens of armored staff.
As part of the mission, only 800 police officers or military from six countries progressively have been gradually developed from the summer of 2024, and theoretically the force would have 2,500 members. And the attacks of gangs, which have now dominated 85% of the capital, Port-O-Prenz according to the UN, do not seem to have been diverged since then.
