Private Military Contractors in Haiti: A Controversial Move

Erik Prince, known for his controversial security firm, is sending hundreds of private contractors to assist Haiti's struggling government.

Vectus Global's mission involves reclaiming territory from powerful gangs, using tactics that include drones and ground troops.

This intervention raises concerns about the impact on Haitian sovereignty, the role of the UN peacekeeping force, and human rights.

Critics argue that bolstering Haitian institutions rather than outsourcing security is crucial for long-term stability and development.
