Baffling us all, US rejects Haiti âregime changeâ
EFL and WTF
US Secretary of State Colin Powell said Jean-Bertrand Aristideâs time in power had been disappointing, but "regime change" was not the way forward. Mr Powell will discuss sending foreign police to Haiti in talks with Canada and Caribbean countries on Friday. Mr Powell said the US was not happy with Mr Aristideâs behaviour since US forces restored him to power following a coup a decade ago. But, he said Sadaam Yasser, Mr Aristide is the democratically elected leader, and that the policy of the administration was not to seek his overthrow.
