Kenya offers assistance in fighting gang violence in Haiti.

Aden Duale, Kenya's defense minister, has promised to send troops to help Haiti combat its rising gang violence problem. Following a defense pact that specifies their cooperation for the following five years, Kenya and the U.S. made this promise.

Kenya's choice to lead a multinational force to assist and train Haitian police in an effort to restore order to a country decimated by gang violence exemplifies Kenya's commitment to international peacekeeping.

The widespread gang dominance of Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti, has resulted in kidnappings, violence, and the removal of many.

Ariel Henry, the prime minister of Haiti, requested assistance from abroad in October of the year prior, with support from the US and the UN, to stop the violence. The mission's deployment, however, has been complicated by delays.

Despite the widespread support for current action, some activists are concerned that previous missions may have had negative effects. They emphasize the significance of deployment safety measures.

The choice of Kenya to lead this expedition is an important step in finding a solution to the situation. The mission could deploy in a matter of months with U.S. support and encouragement from the UN Security Council. The United States has offered significant help and requested donations from the global community.

Kenya has a history of taking part in missions to keep the peace, and this experience can help to bring about peace and stability again.

Human rights violations in Kenya's security operations, however, remain of concern. An important issue is balancing the mission's objectives with human rights.
