US weighs SOUTHCOM lead for Haiti anti-gang mission, citing UN limits

A Republican administration memo, obtained by Infobae, questions the UN Security Council's repressive mission in Haiti and proposes transferring operational control to US Southern Command (SOUTHCOM). This signals a potential shift from multilateral to unilateral US-led security intervention, reflecting frustration with UN constraints in countering armed gangs. The proposal is under consideration, with no decision confirmed.
