Even Before Jovenel Moïse s Assassination, Haiti Was In Crisis

Valerie Baeriswyl / AFP via Getty Images Originally published on July 7, 2021 7:26 pm The assassination of Haitian President Jovenel Moïse at his home threatens to exacerbate Haiti s already rampant problems. Everything that could go wrong seems to be going wrong, says Robert Fatton, an expert on Haitian politics at the University of Virginia, and a native of Haiti himself. The Western portion of the island of Hispaniola, Haiti is perched in the Caribbean just 600 miles southeast of Florida. It threw off French rule with a successful revolt, becoming the first Black-led republic in 1804. The United States has a long history of intervention there: It occupied Haiti from 1915 to 1934. The U.S. has sent in the Marines twice in the past three decades to restore order, under President Bill Clinton and then again under President George W. Bush.
