Haiti's Prime Minister Ariel Henry has agreed to resign following weeks of mounting pressure and increasing violence in the impoverished country.

It comes after regional leaders met in Jamaica on Monday to discuss a political transition in Haiti.

Mr Henry is currently stranded in Puerto Rico after being prevented by armed gangs from returning home.

In a video address announcing his resignation, Mr Henry urged Haitians to remain calm.

"The government that I am leading will resign immediately after the installation of [a transition] council," Mr Henry said.

"I want to thank the Haitian people for the opportunity I had been granted. I'm asking all Haitians to remain calm and do everything they can for peace and stability to come back as fast as possible."

Funny that globohomos don’t worry about law and order in our own country or our own backyard.

I thought the Clintons had fixed this place.

It almost looks like all the Clintons did was steal the money meant for Haiti.

What a swell couple.

So this was a power grab, of real violence. Our media is ridiculous, which means we probably had a hand in it.
So I am done worrying about Haiti.

I remember the Clinton Foundation had a huge presence in Haiti after the big earthquake in 2010. Tremendous PR spin and staged press events. Billions in international aid funneled to disaster relief organizations staffed with layers of highly paid social activists. Very little tangible benefits for the people.at the time. Nothing to show for it now.

Didn’t this same thing happen in Sri Lanka a few months ago? Then Sri Lanka just dropped off the news radar.

It’s interesting to note how the donations to the Clinton Foundation fell off after 2016. Before then, Hillary was the favorite to succeed Obama. Get those bribes in! Every dollar matters!

But to everyone’s surprise, Trump won 2016. No need to bribe loser Hillary now.

Haiti needs to get their act together. They’re starting to look like Chicago.

Take it for what it is worth, but here is a video of Erik Prince, Founder of Blackwater and his experience in Haiti as a Navy Seal and how the situation got so bad.

Wash and repeat - Haiti will never change to anything other than how it is - decade after decade.

The Haitian dilemma results from genetic inequality. Some haitians have the genes and most don’t
