"Concerns Raised as US Urges Kenya to Deploy 1,000 Police Force to Haiti"

The US is considering Kenya to lead a multinational force in Haiti to address gang warfare, despite Kenya's police force being accused of killings and torture by rights watchdogs. Kenyan police officers have been warned against violent abuses, but now they may be deployed to Haiti, where deadly gang violence has escalated since the assassination of President Jovenel Moise. Some organizations are concerned about Kenya exporting abusive police, while others argue that Kenya's security forces should focus on domestic threats. Kenya has relatively little overseas experience in such large numbers and does not speak French, which is used in Haiti.
