SUBJECT: AN URGENT CALL TO SUPPORT EL SALVADOR'S SECURITY EFFORTS IN HAITI, DISMANTLE ARMED GANG NETWORKS, PREVENT RETALIATORY MASSACRES, AND HOLD THEIR FINANCIERS AND PROTECTORS ACCOUNTABLE

Your Excellencies, Distinguished Members of the United Nations, and Leaders of the International Community:

We write to you today not merely as representatives of a media platform, but as concerned members of the Haitian community, giving voice to the anguish, frustration, suffering, and desperate appeals of Haitians at home and throughout the diaspora.

We write through New Generation Show (NGS), under the leadership of Dr. Dauphin, with a message that must be heard in every chamber of the United Nations:

HAITI HAS SUFFERED ENOUGH.

HAITIAN BLOOD HAS BEEN SHED FOR TOO LONG.

THE TIME FOR EMPTY PROMISES, ENDLESS MEETINGS, AND INDECISION MUST COME TO AN END.

For years, the Haitian people have endured a level of terror and brutality that no civilized society should ever be expected to tolerate.

Our mothers have been murdered.

Our fathers have been executed.

Our children have been traumatized, kidnapped, recruited, abused, and deprived of their futures.

Our daughters and sisters have been subjected to sexual violence.

Entire families have been driven from their homes.

Neighborhoods have been reduced to battlegrounds.

Schools have been closed. Hospitals have struggled to function. Businesses have been destroyed. Communities have been abandoned.

There have been horrifying reports of mutilations, executions, burned bodies, and other atrocities that defy human understanding.

And yet, despite years of international declarations, diplomatic discussions, resolutions, and promises of assistance, the suffering continues.

How many more Haitians must die before the international community decides that enough is enough?

I. PRESIDENT NAYIB BUKELE AND THE SALVADORAN MISSION: DO NOT ABANDON THIS EFFORT

The recent deployment of Salvadoran personnel to Haiti, following the disappearance of four Salvadoran aviation technicians after an armed ambush, represents a significant development in the struggle against the criminal organizations terrorizing our nation.

We recognize the determination expressed by His Excellency President Nayib Bukele to locate his missing personnel and confront the armed groups responsible for threatening the lives of innocent people.

We believe that efforts to recover the missing Salvadoran personnel, establish security, and dismantle violent criminal organizations deserve serious international cooperation.

We therefore respectfully but firmly appeal to the United Nations:

DO NOT UNDERMINE A LAWFUL AND EFFECTIVE EFFORT TO RESTORE SECURITY IN HAITI.

DO NOT ALLOW DIPLOMATIC DISAGREEMENTS TO BECOME AN EXCUSE FOR INACTION.

DO NOT LEAVE HAITIAN CIVILIANS DEFENSELESS WHILE ARMED GROUPS CONTINUE THEIR CAMPAIGN OF TERROR.

Instead, we ask the United Nations to work constructively with the Haitian government, President Bukele, Salvadoran personnel, and the authorized multinational security mission to establish clear operational coordination, civilian protections, accountability, and an effective strategy for restoring peace.

If additional legal authorization or coordination is necessary, we urge the relevant authorities to resolve those matters without unnecessary delay.

We are not asking for uncontrolled violence.

We are asking for decisive, lawful, disciplined action against armed criminal organizations.

We are asking for a mission that does not stop at temporary victories but establishes lasting security for the Haitian population.

II. WHERE WAS THE SAME OUTRAGE WHEN HAITIAN CIVILIANS WERE BEING MASSACRED?

We must raise a question that millions of concerned Haitians have asked:

Where was the international outrage when innocent Haitians were being slaughtered?

Where were the urgent appeals when gangs invaded neighborhoods, murdered residents, and forced families to flee?

Where were the powerful voices when children could no longer attend school because armed criminals controlled the streets?

Where were the emergency meetings when mothers were raped, fathers were kidnapped, and entire communities were terrorized?

Why does it sometimes appear that the world becomes more vocal about the methods used to confront gangs than about the atrocities committed by those gangs themselves?

We recognize that civilian protection and human rights must always be respected. Those principles are not obstacles to restoring security; they are essential to doing so successfully.

But the rights of innocent Haitian civilians must receive the same urgency and attention.

The right of an innocent child to live must matter.

The right of a mother to return safely to her home must matter.

The right of an entire nation to exist without terror must matter.

The international community must never allow the protection of human rights to become an excuse for abandoning victims of organized criminal violence.

III. TO THOSE WHO CONDEMN THE ANTI-GANG OPERATIONS: WE DEMAND CONSISTENCY

We are deeply concerned by public figures and commentators who have criticized operations against armed groups while appearing far less vocal about the atrocities those groups have committed.

We specifically call upon individuals such as Mr. Dupiton, whose public positions have raised serious concerns among some members of our community, to address these questions openly.

Where is the same intensity of condemnation when gangs murder innocent civilians?

Where is the same outrage when children are kidnapped?

Where is the same public mobilization when communities are burned and families are displaced?

Where is the same demand for justice when criminal organizations terrorize the population?

We do not claim that disagreement with President Bukele or criticism of military operations automatically establishes an affiliation with gangs.

However, we firmly believe that any person who knowingly finances, directs, supplies, protects, or collaborates with armed criminal organizations must be investigated and held accountable through credible evidence and due process.

If there are credible allegations involving political figures, business leaders, public commentators, or other influential individuals, those allegations must be independently examined.

No individual should be above the law.

And no individual should be condemned without evidence.

Our demand is simple:

LET THE TRUTH BE EXPOSED. LET THE EVIDENCE BE EXAMINED. LET THOSE RESPONSIBLE FACE JUSTICE.

IV. THE GREATEST DANGER: RETALIATION AGAINST THE HAITIAN PEOPLE

Your Excellencies,

One of our most urgent concerns is what may happen if current security pressure against armed groups is suddenly withdrawn without an effective plan to protect civilians.

We fear the possibility of widespread retaliatory violence.

Armed groups that have lost territory, influence, weapons, or personnel may attempt to reestablish control through intimidation, kidnappings, executions, and attacks against communities perceived to have supported security operations.

Imagine the consequences if residents who welcomed international assistance are later abandoned to face the same armed groups without protection.

Imagine the danger to families accused of cooperating with the police or supporting President Bukele.

Imagine the possibility of entire neighborhoods being punished because their residents dared to hope for freedom.

This is not a prediction that a massacre is inevitable.

It is a warning that the risk of retaliation must be treated as an immediate security priority.

We therefore urge the United Nations and Haitian authorities to ensure that any security operation includes a sustained plan to protect liberated neighborhoods, prevent revenge attacks, restore policing, and keep criminal organizations from returning.

DO NOT PUSH THE GANGS BACK TODAY ONLY TO ALLOW THEM TO RETURN TOMORROW.

DO NOT GIVE HAITIAN FAMILIES HOPE TODAY AND LEAVE THEM EXPOSED TO RETALIATION TOMORROW.

The mission must not be measured only by how many armed criminals retreat.

It must be measured by how many innocent lives are saved, how many families return home, and how many communities remain safe.

V. HAITI HAS TWO FORMS OF CRIMINAL POWER: THE GANGS IN THE STREETS AND THOSE WHO PROTECT THEM FROM ABOVE

In Haitian Creole, we often speak of two categories:

“Gang ak sapat” — the gangs in sandals.

“Gang ak kravat” — the gangs wearing ties and expensive suits.

The first category represents armed criminals who openly terrorize communities with weapons.

The second represents those who may operate behind respectable titles, political influence, financial resources, or positions of authority while secretly enabling organized crime.

We must be clear:

A man carrying a rifle and terrorizing a neighborhood is a threat to Haiti.

But a powerful individual who knowingly finances that rifle, supplies the ammunition, launders the money, or protects the criminal network is also a threat to Haiti.

One may operate in the streets.

The other may operate from a luxurious office.

One may wear sandals.

The other may wear a suit.

BUT IF BOTH PARTICIPATE IN THE SAME CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE, BOTH MUST ANSWER TO JUSTICE.

Haiti cannot achieve lasting peace by confronting only the visible gunmen while leaving their financiers, weapons suppliers, corrupt protectors, and criminal business networks untouched.

We call upon the United Nations to strengthen financial investigations, enforce targeted sanctions, trace illicit weapons, investigate money laundering, and support independent prosecutions of anyone credibly implicated in sustaining Haiti's armed gangs.

DISMANTLE THE CRIMINAL NETWORK FROM THE STREETS TO THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF POWER.

VI. A DIRECT APPEAL TO THE UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL

We respectfully request that the United Nations take the following actions without unnecessary delay:

Work with the Haitian government, El Salvador, and authorized international partners to ensure that effective anti-gang operations can continue under clear legal authority and accountable command.

Provide appropriate intelligence-sharing, humanitarian assistance, and operational coordination to establish their fate and secure their recovery.

Provide sufficient personnel, logistics, intelligence, equipment, medical support, and funding to help Haitian security institutions regain control of affected territory.

Establish immediate protection plans for vulnerable communities, including those at risk of being targeted for cooperating with security forces.

Identify and prosecute, where evidence supports it, individuals who finance, arm, direct, or protect criminal organizations, regardless of their wealth, status, or political connections.

Require strict compliance with applicable international law, independent investigation of credible civilian-harm allegations, and meaningful accountability for misconduct.

Ensure that international assistance strengthens the Haitian National Police, judicial system, border security, democratic institutions, and long-term ability to govern independently.

The Haitian people deserve to know what progress is being made, which communities have been secured, how displaced families will return, and what steps will prevent armed groups from regaining control.

VII. HAITI IS NOT ASKING THE WORLD FOR PERMISSION TO SURVIVE

For generations, Haiti has been a symbol of courage, sacrifice, freedom, and human dignity.

Our ancestors fought against slavery and colonial domination. They demonstrated to the world that freedom was not a privilege to be granted by powerful nations, but a fundamental right belonging to every human being.

Today, the descendants of those revolutionaries are asking for something that should never have been denied to them:

The right to live without fear.

The right to sleep without gunfire.

The right to raise their children without the constant threat of kidnapping.

The right to walk through their neighborhoods without armed criminals deciding who lives and who dies.

The right to return to their homes.

The right to reclaim their country.

WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR REVENGE. WE ARE DEMANDING JUSTICE.

WE ARE NOT CALLING FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF INNOCENT PEOPLE. WE ARE CALLING FOR THE DISMANTLING OF CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS.

WE ARE NOT ASKING FOREIGN POWERS TO TAKE OVER HAITI. WE ARE ASKING THEM TO HELP HAITI RECOVER ITS SECURITY, DIGNITY, AND SOVEREIGNTY.

And we reject the idea that Haiti must accept permanent gang domination as its destiny.

VIII. TO PRESIDENT NAYIB BUKELE AND THE PEOPLE OF EL SALVADOR

Your Excellency President Nayib Bukele,

We recognize the seriousness of the attack involving Salvadoran personnel and the determination of your government to seek their recovery.

We also recognize that many Haitians have welcomed your government's willingness to confront the armed groups that have brought unimaginable suffering to our nation.

On behalf of the concerned Haitian voices represented by this appeal, we express our appreciation for efforts that genuinely contribute to the protection of innocent people and the restoration of security.

We urge you to continue working with Haiti's legitimate authorities and international partners to pursue these objectives lawfully, effectively, and with the protection of civilians at the center of every operation.

Let this mission be remembered not only for military determination but for the lives it helped save, the communities it helped liberate, and the hope it helped restore.

IX. OUR FINAL MESSAGE TO THE UNITED NATIONS: HISTORY IS WATCHING

Your Excellencies,

History will remember what the international community chose to do during one of the darkest chapters in Haiti's modern history.

It will remember whether the world's most powerful institutions acted with courage or allowed indecision to prolong the suffering of innocent people.

It will remember whether the international community prioritized the safety of Haitian children or permitted criminal organizations to continue controlling their future.

And it will remember whether the United Nations used its authority to coordinate meaningful action or allowed disputes over responsibility to delay urgently needed protection.

We therefore ask you to act.

DO NOT ABANDON HAITI.

DO NOT UNDERMINE EFFECTIVE, LAWFUL EFFORTS TO DISMANTLE THE GANGS.

DO NOT ALLOW CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS TO REBUILD THEIR POWER WHILE THE WORLD DEBATES.

DO NOT IGNORE THE DANGER OF RETALIATORY MASSACRES.

DO NOT STOP AT THE GANGS IN SANDALS WHILE LEAVING THE GANGS IN SUITS UNTOUCHED.

Support Haiti's security institutions.

Coordinate with President Bukele and Salvadoran personnel within a clear and lawful framework.

Protect the innocent.

Pursue the criminals.

Investigate their financiers.

Restore the rule of law.

And give the Haitian people a genuine opportunity to reclaim their future.

The lives of Haitian children cannot wait for another conference.

The safety of Haitian mothers cannot wait for another promise.

The freedom of the Haitian people cannot wait for another generation.

We are not demanding that the United Nations choose between security and human rights.

We are demanding that it deliver both.

Because a nation cannot enjoy meaningful freedom while armed criminals control its streets.

And a nation cannot achieve lasting peace unless justice reaches both those who commit atrocities and those who make those atrocities possible.

HAITI NEEDS ACTION.

HAITI NEEDS PROTECTION.

HAITI NEEDS JUSTICE.

AND HAITI NEEDS IT NOW.

With profound respect, unwavering determination, and an urgent appeal for humanity,

Dr. Dauphin
