assistance to support the political, economic and so-
cial development of Haiti with limited and uneven re-
sults.

control large areas of the country, and violations of

areas of Haiti, and caused severe destruction of prop-
erty. 
(5) The Interim Government of Haiti under 
Prime Minister Gerard Latortue is attempting to ini-
tiate much needed reforms and bring political sta-
bility to the country prior to the reintroduction of an-
ticipated democratically-elected governance in 2005. 
(6) On July 19–20, 2004, the international com-
munity pledged $1,085,000,000 in assistance for 
Haiti, including $230,000,000 from the United 
States.

(a) addressing the insecurity and instability caused 
by armed groups who are undermining the ability of

and create the conditions for free and fair elections; 
(b) establishing the rule of law; and (c) economic re-
activation and job creation.

rity Council authorized the United Nations Stabiliza-
tion Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) 6,700 military
