US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is currently in Jamaica for an emergency meeting to address the escalating crisis in Haiti. The US Embassy in Haiti has evacuated all non-essential personnel due to the surge in gang violence near the embassy's compound. There are growing concerns that the violence could spread beyond the capital area.
Secretary Blinken has been engaging with the Jamaican Prime Minister and other regional leaders to discuss the situation. Notably, Haiti's Prime Minister was absent from the meeting, prompting further speculation about the political dynamics within Haiti.
