1. On February 15, PolOffs delivered a non paper on
consolidating support for Haitian elections (Reftel) to Paulo
Moreno, the head of the MFA's UN Affairs office, as well as
to MFA Human Rights Director General Julio Prado. On
February 17, Moreno told PolOff that the GOE considers
promoting stability and democracy in Haiti a high priority.
They are working multilaterally through the UN and MINUSTAH
to this effect. The GOE feels that by contributing troops to
MINUSTAH, they are increasing security in Haiti which is
conducive to democratic stability in the hemisphere. Moreno
said that the GOE may also send election observers to Haiti
under the OAS.
2. The Ambassador raised the GOE's MINUSTAH troop
contribution at her February 16 meeting with Ecuador's Joint
Forces Chief Victor Rosero and other Armed Forces chiefs.
The GOE officials responded that Ecuador would be rotating
another group of approximately 64 engineers into Haiti in
May, replacing the current contingent for another six-month
deployment.
