¶1. In response to reftel, Ambassador delivered the letter
from DHS Secretary Chertoff to Minister of Public Works,
Transportation and Communication, Frantz Verella, officially
informing Haiti that DHS determined that airport security
measures had been brought into compliance with the security
standards of the International Civil Aviation Organization.
Verella responded with enthusiasm and agreed with the
Ambassador that further security assessments and improvements
are still necessary despite this promising upgrade.
