As chairman of CARICOM, I wish to make the following statement on behalf of the community in relation to the development in Haiti. CARICOM has been singularly focused on the events unfolding in Haiti over the last few days. The expanded Bureau has been meeting separately with Prime Minister Henry, the stakeholders in Haiti, and our international partners to bring resolution to this highly complex matter where persons' lives and livelihoods are at stake. The complexity requires us, in these consultations, to ensure that a Haitian-led and Haitian-owned solution may be achieved as soon as possible. We remain deeply engaged and will update on the outcome of our deliberations as soon as practicable. Thank you.
