Officials are charting Evacuation Flights to get Hundreds Of Americans out of haiti now. The first plane landed in miami with thousands of passengers but lets go live to bryan llenas in the Dominican Republic with more. Chris christina good evening for the first Rescue Charter Flight from the state Department Took off and landed today in miami at 2 20 p. M. That according to a u. S. Official there were 47 passengers on board that Rescue Charter Flight. Believed to be all americans. Obviously this flight took off from cap a shot which is off our five hour drive away from the capitol portauprince. Several hundred americans are believed to be trapped in haiti. The state Department Says they are working on new Evacuation Options out of portauprince the capitol over the weekend Gang Violence has escalated in haiti 80 of the capitol including its airport under gang control. More than a Million People face famine, more than 5 million are in need of humanitarian aid. The u. S. Is backing a ninemember transnational counsel that looks to transition haiti into a new government. More violence over the weekend so far. Very, very concerning. We do see the political process Movement Board we are continuing to work with the canyons about getting this Military Support Mission in place to help the Haitian National police. Congressional republicans have pause the release of about 40 million deemed critical to findfunding a multinational Pole Force Led by kenya tasked with going into haiti and fighting the gangs. What they are asking me too do is release a 50 million of cash and weapons to go into haiti with no governance. The worst thing we can do his arm the very warlords that threaten the people of haiti. Meantime there are fears of a haitian Migrant Crisis back home in the u. S. And right here in the Dominican Republic. Thousands of haitians this morning were allowed to cross to buy and sell goods that eight National Market in the border town. It is an economic lifeline for haitians is the crisis in their country worsens dr allows patients to participate in the crossborder marketplace as long as they are by electrically checked each is given Immigration Card that allows them to come back for future trips we spoke to a haitian at the dominican market earlier today, listen. Haiti is no good for me. It is misery we are hungry. We would Like International help with food. Florida Governor Desantis has ordered more than 250 additional officers and it really troops to the Southern Coast of florida as they anticipate perhaps haitian Migrant Exodus as all eyes are on haiti and all eyes are on the americans potentially trapped on the other side is border. Florida Governor Desantis getting ahead of this. Thank you so much bryan llenas of the Dominican Republic. National Security Military analyst dr. Rebecca grant doctor Rebecca Grantedjoints Mes a doctor, thank you so much for being here with us. Now, in terms of all this International Crisis that is going on, President Biden is getting a lot of political backlash over this right now. People are frustrated especially Chuck Schumer had a good Speech Schumer getting lots of criticism about this. Take a listen. Look out of line is just the start of what i think. You have the Senate Majority leader trying to interfere in the Election Process and destabilize the country of our ally, israel but what dhec is going on . That is not his job. His job is to make sure we axley find a way to help fund israel. Not stand as an obstacle to israel doing what they need to do which is International Interest which is to obliterate hamas. A lot of republicans saying the same thing. How do you think the Biden Administration should be dealing with this war . How do you feel about that rhetoric coming from schumer . First of all i agree, schumer did not help one bit. What biden once right now is for this ceasefire to take place. Biden is walking a tight rope between outrage of the war and the fact he staunchly supports israel and will not pull Israel Military support and im going to point out that schumer also says hamas must be defeated and israel has to have their security chief. We went to see this ceasefire and all these political remarks are not helping to keep the pressure on hamas to agree, get a ceasefire so we can start humanitarian assistance and start looking toward a bigger diplomatic solution there that will involve getting the Abraham Accords and other initiatives back on track. Speaking about getting government and whatnot back on track i want to ask you about haiti. The Biden Administration are working on plans to help evacuate americans trapped there it is unclear how Many Americans are stuck. This is what the state Department Spokesperson amount matthewmiller said just last wee a listen. We are not planning were not actively planning for any evacuation and i would remind you and others haiti has been a level four country with respect to our Travel Advisory since 2020. What that means is for four years weve been telling americans do not go to haiti do not travel there it is not safe to do so. It is thursday at now the Biden Administration is working on plans to get people out of haiti as brian has reported their set eight charted charter plane with limited seating do you think the bite administration is doing too little too late at this point . How fast things change the most important thing they have done is send additional u. S. Marines to reinforce the marinee Embassy Security and portauprince. I guarantee y right now the pentagon are having military options ready should that be required. The Evacuation Flights coming out i would expect military at least watching that to make sure that flow smoothly. Right now think the bite administration is watching this very closely, really playing catch up. The key is to get the Transition Counsel in place this may take more action again from the un to bring in enough forces to stabilize that and then address an emerging food crisis it is great kenya is willing to send the troops. We just have got to get on the ground International Help can come in and make a difference and believe me they are watching that at the white house and the pentagon right now very closely. Good, as they should as we all know theres growing concern over the possibility of an influx of patient refugees pouring into florida are trying to get across the southern border while the gangs wreak havoc on haiti right now. Florida Governor Desantis announced florida fish and wild officers stopped a vessel with 25 potential immigrants from haiti in recent weeks. Take a listen. They had firearms, they had drugs, they had Night Vision Gear and were boating very recklessly which would potentially endanger other folks. That vessel was interdicted near the sebastian inlet. Those illegal aliens were turned over to the coast guard. That is scary stuff. As we all know we are already dealing with a crisis at our southern border. Do you feel like we are prepared the Biden Administration is prepared to possibly deal with the new wave of migrants from haiti . This is a boats coming up in haiti is right across from cuba. Florida is right there. I am glad were keeping an eye on that im sure the coast guard is very careful but the key here is going to be to make things better in haiti so you dont create a wave of migration because of an inability to solve the Security Situation on the ground. Right now 80 of the capitol is controlled by gangs. U. S. International partners need to move really fast in order to avoid a microwave that is also going to endanger the migrants that come and try to do this but we do not want migrants coming up into florida pr proof got tox this problem in haiti and get on fast. I know is going to take a lot to get that done i do not even know where you start you have all of these people there so many people starving and in need of medical aid. You have a crisis there is a government pretty much does not exist. Gangs have taken over. Werent you even begin to find a solution for this . Transition counsel and secretary blinken says this is not going to be smooth so that the council in place. Give them enough security whether its canyons or others through the un to support that. And then get the airfields open so Relief Supplies can come in. Haiti has a lot of coastline get that relief moving by c as well. That should quell things enough to let the Transition Counsel try to stabilize haiti and move toward elections which is their goal but i think its going to take some international boots on the ground to calm this one down. Excited to come at dr. Rebecca grant thank you so much for your analysis today, thank you. Okay police in washington d. C.
