Trump backs Bukele Haiti deployment

    di Flint: Donald Trump

    President Trump is giving full backing to El Salvador President Nayib Bukele for sending troops into Haiti to tackle the gang crisis and find missing soldiers. The conversation revealed that Bukele faces a big problem with Haiti after some of his people were attacked, prompting Trump to tell him to run his country and do what he has to do. Four Salvadoran aviation technicians are reported missing near Port-au-Prince following an armored vehicle destruction, yet Trump made it clear Bukele does not need US assistance because his country is in pretty good shape. Bukele responded by deploying over 2,000 troops and issuing a warning directly to gang leaders in Haitian Creole while non-governmental organizations have urged him to halt operations. Despite the NGOs pushing for a stop, Trump encouraged the intervention to proceed without any American help needed.
