I can agree with you more! however, the enforcement of treaties don't lie in the hand of the people, but rather in the hand of the government.

Nonetheless, the people can put pressure on the government to get some explanation on why US has unlimited power to pursue criminals to Haitian soil when Haitian government can't do the same on American soil?

In light of the "devil advocate" principle, I don't think it is because the Haitian government doesn't want to, but rather the US government doesn't allow the Haitian government to do it. You and I both know when it comes to US/Haiti.

US has the ultimate power to do as it sees fit and there is nothing the Haitian government can do about it.

It is written black and white in the US constitution which calls on the US government to respect all signed treaties, but you how that goes when it come to Haiti.

This one particular subject has been given me head aches for a very longtime and keep wondering why doesn't the Haitian government annul these types of treaties?

As you can see, the jury is out to rule on that question.

The Dark Knight, my! my! my! Dark Knight why are you coming on here propaganding flawed information? First and foremost, what does The US constitution have to do with Haitian consititution?" T he US Constitution was written in 1778 while Ha > >

Dark Knight, I have read the 21 pages of the US Constitution and the ARTICLE III, SECTION 3 you referred to states: Section 3 - Treason Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their E > >

Oke Legrand & Tiba Maybe I've gotten a reading problem. My bad! I think I was understood when I said the dual citizenship must be off the table prior any negotiation because of the severe issue of conflict of interest it comprises. I am wondering > >

It is only a question what is on the table and what is our specific rights and obligations. Dual citizenship that requires fainess in dealing between the acquired land and the natal land.I mean, if a man who holds dual citizenship, represents haiti > >

If the treaty is one sided, it is only because the person who was signing such a contract on bealf of Haiti simply was not doing his/her job. It is that simple. Now, we as haitians citizens need to choose leaders that can negociate with great countr > >

Jean-Esdrace, I don't want you to think that the treaties were signed as/to be "one-sided" intentionally. These treaties that were signed between Haiti and US just happen to become "one-sided" because while US law enforcement, the CIA and the FBI > >

Dark knight, You asked "I am wondering how, for instance, a high profile Haitian official, who holds a US citizenship, be able to negotiate a treaty 100% in favor of Haiti with the United States?" This is a very magnificient and compelling qu > >

I really appreciate the way Tiba took the time to clarify this question asked by the previous friend. It is beautiful. Dual citizenship is certainly harmless to either country when it comes to fullfilling one's responsibility as a citizen. Once > >

My question now would be" if the treties were not intentionally signed as/to be 'one sided", why are we not able to do the same thing? The power lies in what is written and signed. If it is written as both sided and we don't act as if it was, it is o > >
