Guatemalan Forces Deployed to Haiti to Combat Rising Gang Violence

A contingent of 150 Guatemalan soldiers has arrived in Haiti to assist in the ongoing battle against violent armed gangs that have destabilized much of the nation. The soldiers, drawn from Guatemala’s military police, were deployed in two groups: the first 75 arrived on Friday, followed by another 75 on Saturday. This move comes as part of an international effort to restore order in Haiti, which has been under a state of emergency for months.

Haiti has been grappling with escalating gang violence, especially in its capital, Port-au-Prince, where criminal groups have seized control of key areas. The Guatemalan troops are joining a United Nations-backed security mission that was initially led by Kenyan forces, who sent nearly 400 police officers in mid-2023 to help curb the violence. Despite these efforts, the situation has continued to deteriorate, prompting the need for additional international assistance.

The deployment is part of a broader plan approved by the UN, which will eventually involve a total of 2,500 officers from various countries. In addition to Guatemala and Kenya, forces from Jamaica, Belize, and El Salvador are also contributing to the mission, with the United States being the largest financial backer of the operation.

Haiti’s security crisis took a dramatic turn in March 2024 when armed gangs stormed the nation’s two largest prisons, freeing approximately 3,700 inmates. This attack further compounded the violence already plaguing the Ouest Department, which includes Port-au-Prince, and led to the extension of the state of emergency that was first declared on March 3, 2024.

Haiti’s current instability is rooted in decades of political chaos, natural disasters, and economic hardship. The assassination of President Jovenel Moïse in 2021 further plunged the country into disarray, exacerbating the power vacuum and paving the way for rampant gang activity. The ongoing violence and lack of functioning governance have left Haiti as the poorest nation in the Americas, with no clear path to recovery without sustained international intervention.

The arrival of Guatemalan forces, along with the continued support from other international actors, underscores the global recognition of the urgent need to address Haiti’s security crisis and restore stability to the beleaguered nation.

The escalating crisis in Haiti has prompted widespread concern, as armed gangs have expanded their control over large parts of the capital, Port-au-Prince, and other key areas of the country. These gangs are not only involved in traditional criminal activities like drug trafficking and extortion but have also increasingly targeted government institutions, critical infrastructure, and ordinary civilians. The situation has made it nearly impossible for Haiti’s government to maintain law and order, further deepening the country’s political and social instability.

In response to the growing chaos, the Guatemalan government’s decision to send a contingent of 150 soldiers marks a significant step in Haiti’s international support efforts. The Guatemalan soldiers will bolster the ongoing United Nations-backed mission, which had initially seen some success with the deployment of Kenyan police officers. However, despite their best efforts, the violence has not been contained, prompting the UN to authorize a larger, multinational force. The additional support is seen as a necessary measure to prevent further deterioration of security, particularly in Port-au-Prince, which has been the epicenter of gang violence.

The gang attacks in March 2024, which saw the storming of Haiti’s largest prisons and the release of over 3,700 inmates, are a stark illustration of the lawlessness that has gripped the nation. These freed criminals are likely to have joined the ranks of the gangs already terrorizing the streets, further complicating efforts to regain control. The situation was worsened by the lack of a central political authority capable of organizing an effective response. Since the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse in 2021, political leadership has been fractured, with competing factions and weak governance that has failed to address the country’s mounting issues.

The Guatemalan forces’ arrival is part of a larger international effort to restore stability to the Caribbean nation. While the UN mission, led by Kenya, is a central component, smaller contingents from other nations, including Jamaica, Belize, and El Salvador, are also contributing to the mission’s success. The United States, which has been heavily involved in financing the mission, has also pledged continued support, reflecting the high stakes for regional stability. The international community has long recognized that Haiti’s recovery hinges on the successful stabilization of its security environment.

Despite these efforts, experts warn that the road to recovery for Haiti will be long and difficult. Beyond the military intervention, the country needs political reforms, economic support, and humanitarian assistance to tackle the root causes of its instability. The endemic corruption, weak institutions, and lack of economic opportunities have created a fertile ground for gang activity, and without addressing these underlying issues, any external intervention will likely remain a temporary solution.

As the international community rallies to Haiti’s aid, there are growing calls for a comprehensive approach that includes not just military intervention but also substantial investments in Haiti’s future. This includes rebuilding its institutions, restoring public trust in the government, and providing opportunities for education and employment for the country’s youth—many of whom are vulnerable to being recruited by gangs.

In the meantime, the humanitarian crisis continues to worsen, with thousands displaced by gang violence, many living in makeshift shelters, and widespread poverty leaving most citizens unable to access basic services. As the Guatemalan troops join the UN-led mission in Haiti, the hope is that their presence will help bring a semblance of order to a nation that has long been beset by political and social turmoil.

For the citizens of Haiti, the arrival of international forces offers a glimmer of hope. However, the situation remains precarious, and it will take a concerted, long-term effort from both the Haitian government and the international community to achieve lasting peace and stability in the country.

University of Texas Press. p. 55. There are basically four operational categories that may be termed ethnic or even racial in Mexico today: (1) güero or blanco (white), denoting European and Near East extraction; (2) criollo (creole), meaning light mestizo in this context but actually of varying complexion; (3) mestizo, an imprecise category that includes many phenotypic variations; and (4) indio, also an imprecise category. These are nominal categories, and neither güero/blanco nor criollo is a widely used term (see Nutini 1997: 230). Nevertheless, there is a popular consensus in Mexico today that these four categories represent major sectors of the nation and that they can be arranged into a rough hierarchy: whites and creoles at the top, a vast population of mestizos in the middle, and Indians (perceived as both a racial and an ethnic component) at the bottom.
