I spoke to the commander in Haiti, and he\u2019s very upbeat. We are, however, waiting to see the next steps,\u201d Ruto said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kenya has deployed 735 police officers as part of the nearly 1,000-strong mission that has supported the Haitian National Police since the start of the deployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Head of State dismissed claims that the Kenyan-led mission had achieved little, insisting there had been \u201cdemonstrable progress\u201d since its deployment began in mid-2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo say nothing has changed is not correct,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf you speak to the Haitian people or the government, they will tell you many significant things have happened. Today, their port city is functioning \u2014 it was not working before. Many schools have reopened, the presidential palace [is] operational again, and the police academy, which had [been] taken over by gangs, [is] now training officers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tangible-impact\">Tangible impact <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>He said these gains demonstrated that the MSS had made a tangible impact despite operating under difficult conditions and with limited international support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHave we done everything we should? No,\u201d he admitted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe didn\u2019t have everything we needed, and we didn\u2019t get the kind of support we thought we would get \u2014 or that we were promised.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ruto revealed that he had formally raised the matter with the United Nations, urging member states to step up support for Haiti\u2019s stabilization efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI raised this matter at the UN. I wrote to the Chairperson and made it clear that unless we demonstrate international solidarity, provide the resources, the equipment, the vehicles, and ensure enough boots on the ground, we won\u2019t solve this problem,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-gang-suppression-force\">Gang Suppression Force <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On October 1, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) voted to transition the Kenya-led MSS mission in Haiti to the GSF, effectively ending Nairobi\u2019s leadership role in the Caribbean nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Council approved the creation of the new force under Resolution 2793, with 12 members voting in favor and three abstaining \u2014 Russia, China, and Pakistan. None opposed the resolution passed in a session chaired by South Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Council authorized the GSF for 12 months supported by a newly created UN Support Office and the Organization of American States (OAS). It took over from the MSS, whose mandate expired on October 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis adoption offers Haiti hope,\u201d said Mike Waltz, the United States ambassador to the UN. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat hope has been slipping away as gangs expanded their territory, raped, pillaged, murdered, and terrorized the Haitian population. The very existence of the Haitian state is at stake.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Head of State dismissed claims that the Kenyan-led mission had achieved little,
