Haiti Assesses Entry into the ALBA as Full Member
HAVANA, Cuba, Jan 11 (acn)
Haitian President Michell Martelly announced on Wednesday to the
TeleSur Television network that he’s assessing the possibility for
his country to enter into
the Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas (ALBA) as full member, and
stop being an observer.

TeleSur special
correspondent in Port-au-Price, Madelein Garcia, also reported
that, when asked if this decision would affect Haiti’s relations
with the United States, Martelly assured that it’s not about an
ideological matter but about the reconstruction of his country,
the Cubadebate Web site reported.
“They’re fraternal peoples and we’re gong to work with them,”
stated the Haitian leader. Martelly’s statements were given in
an exclusive interview with TeleSur after a press conference, in
which the head of state announced that thanks to the help of
Canada it will be possible to relocate 20,000 families living in
improvised camps since the 2010 earthquake.
