The United States government has initiated steps to deport a Haitian national accused of orchestrating a campaign of violence and supporting gang activities, according to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The individual, whose identity remains undisclosed, is alleged to have undermined US foreign policy objectives and posed a threat to national security. Rubio emphasized that the Department of State has determined the individual’s presence in the US could have severe adverse consequences for foreign policy. Under the Immigration and Naturalization Act, the Department of Homeland Security will proceed with removal charges. Rubio stated, ‘The era of impunity in Haiti is over. This action reflects the Trump administration’s commitment to safeguarding American citizens, advancing national security, and promoting regional stability.’ Earlier this week, the US Department of State also publicly designated two former Haitian officials, Arnel Belizaire and Antonio Cheramy, for their involvement in significant corruption during their tenure. These designations render them and their immediate family members ineligible for entry into the US. Principal Deputy Spokesperson Thomas Pigott highlighted that their corrupt actions destabilized Haiti’s institutions, adversely affecting US national interests. These measures underscore the US government’s dedication to holding individuals accountable for undermining Haiti’s stability.
