Prime Minister Mia Mottley
CARICOM leaders continue to express concerns about the deteriorating political, economic and security situation in Haiti, which also belongs to the 15-member regional integration grouping.
Haiti has been plunged into chaos ever since its president, Jovenel Moise, was assassinated at his private residence overlooking the capital on July 7, 2021.
Since then armed criminal gangs that have control of almost all of the capital, Port au Prince, have sought to overthrow the provisional government.
The United Nations says thousands of people, including women and children, have either been killed or forced to flee their homes as the gangs step up their activities to remove the government, despite the presence of a Kenya-led Multinational Security Support mission.
Prime Minister of Barbados Mia Mottley, speaking at the official opening of the 49th Regular Meeting of CARICOM Heads of Government in Montego Bay on Sunday, stressed that over the course of the last six months, one of the region's major concerns was the stability of Haiti.
