Puerto Príncipe. El enviado especial de Estados Unidos en Haití renunció al cargo este jueves, dos meses después de su nombramiento, al denunciar las deportaciones del gobierno de Joe Biden de miles de haitianos que cruzan la frontera desde México.

“No me asociaré con la decisión inhumana y contraproducente de Estados Unidos de deportar a miles de refugiados y migrantes ilegales haitianos a Haití”, dijo el enviado especial del Departamento de Estado, Daniel Foote, en su carta de renuncia.

En el texto, dirigido al secretario de Estado Antony Blinken, Foote describió Haití como un lugar en el que los diplomáticos estadounidenses “están confinados en instalaciones de seguridad debido a los peligros que representan las bandas armadas que controlan la vida diaria”.
