Daniel Foote, special envoy for Haiti, resigns citing ‘inhumane’ US decision to deport thousands of Haitians from US border

CNN  

CNN — Daniel Foote, the US special envoy for Haiti, has handed in his resignation to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, saying he will “not be associated with the United States inhumane, counterproductive decision to deport thousands of Haitian refugees” from the US-Mexico border. He adds that the US policy approach to Haiti remains “deeply flawed.” The Biden administration is presently grappling with an influx of thousands of migrants, many of whom are Haitian, at the US-Mexico border in Del Rio, Texas. “There have been multiple senior-level policy conversations on Haiti, where all proposals, including those led by Special Envoy Foote, were fully considered in a rigorous and transparent policy process,” Price said. “So what needs to happen is to stop the deportation flights to Haiti effective immediately and instead welcome Haitians to screen them for asylum … so they don’t have to return to where they fled.” Democrats seethe Many Democrats have expressed outrage over the Biden administration’s policy of deporting Haitian migrants and recently surfaced video of Border Patrol agents using what appear to be aggressive tactics to confront migrants.
