Insulza Underlines the Importance of the World Summit for Solidarity with Haiti
May 31, 2010
The Secretary General of the Organization of American States, José Miguel Insulza, today highlighted the importance of the World Summit for the Future of Haiti: Solidarity beyond the Crisis, to be held in the Dominican Republic June 1st and 2nd with the objective of creating permanent ties of solidarity between the international community and the Caribbean nation.
Insulza said that “the commitment of the countries and international organizations with the Haiti Reconstruction Plan and with the strengthening of the Haitian democratic system is an urgent effort that cannot be delayed and that everyone must develop in coordination with each other for the benefit of the Haitian people.” He added that “from this point of view, the meeting in Punta Cana reflects the interest that the governments of America and Europe have in the plans designed to help the government of President Préval work to lift the country from the huge setback brought about by the January 12 earthquake.”
At the Punta Cana meeting, convened by the governments of the Dominican Republic and Haiti, and by the Spanish Presidency of the European Union, a full review will be made of all projected plans and of the funds collected in the last months to help Haiti, in order to set deadlines and concrete objectives that define in an orderly way the future of this international effort.
The OAS Secretary General praised the initiative to convene this meeting that arose during the last Summit of the Rio Group and Latin America and the Caribbean held in Cancun. It was decided then to call for this intercontinental meeting to speed up the plans for reconstruction and recovery in Haiti, and President Leonel Fernández offered to host it. Insulza said that “the road towards the development of the Caribbean nation cannot wait, which is why hopefully the Punt Cana summit will allow for a definition of a strategy of solidarity with this country that establishes a timeline and the political and technical aspects of international assistance.”
The review of the Plan of Action for the Reconstruction of Haiti is the main objective of the Punta Cana meeting, which is to be attended by numerous heads of state of the region and of the European continent.
