USA / HAITI – The Department of State is taking steps to impose visa restrictions and revoke the visas of two Transitional Presidential Council (TPC) members and their immediate family members (spouse and children).
“These actions are being taken due to the TPC member’s involvement in the operation of gangs and other criminal organisations in Haiti, including through interference with the government of Haiti’s efforts to counter gangs designated as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO) by the United States,” said US Department of State, in a press release Sunday.
This action is taken under INA 212(a)(3)(C), which generally bars entrance to those whose entry or proposed activities have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for our nation.
“The United States remains committed to supporting Haiti’s stability and to partnering with Haitian authorities to fight gang violence in Haiti. The Haitian people have had enough with gang violence, destruction, and political infighting. The Trump administration will promote accountability for those who continue to destabilise Haiti and the region,” US Department of State, advised.
