El Salvador President Nayib Bukele says his administration can ‘fix’ the ongoing crisis in Haiti.

Through messages on X, as commentary on footage showing the crisis in Haiti, Bukele said a similar approach as was done in El Salvador “must be done in Haiti.

Throughout the ongoing crisis, Haiti’s capital has seen a collapse in security and healthcare and is on the verge of being captured by armed gangs.

Haiti entered a state of emergency last Sunday, March 3, after fighting escalated, armed gangs broke inmates out of prison, and an estimated over ten thousand people were displaced while Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry was in Kenya seeking a deal for an international force to fight Haiti’s gangs.

Henry remains stranded in Puerto Rico.

Bukele is wildly popular at home and across Latin America for his crackdown on gangs since coming into the presidency in 2019. Under Bukele, authorities have rounded up close to 75,000 suspected gangsters in specially built prisons.

Homicides in El Salvador dropped from 6,656 in 2015 to 214 in 2023.

‘We can fix it,” said Bukele, granted his administration receives a United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolution, Haiti’s consent and mission expenses covered.

The El Salvador Presidential Press Office has since added that Bukele is “referring to the political and social situation that Haiti is going through.”

No further details were given on how Bukele proposes to aid the country.

Caribbean Community (CARICOM) has summoned envoys from the United States, France, Canada and the United Nations to a meeting on Monday, March 11, in Jamaica to discuss the violence.
