U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton was behind a controversial report on Haiti's fraud-filled presidential elections, by telling political actors and others that the United States wants the process to move forward. She pushed the adoption of the Organization of the American States report on Haiti's chaotic Nov. 28 presidential elections, she also looked for advice on how a quake-battered Haiti could dig itself out of the political crisis stemming from the election.
Clinton travelled to Haiti on Sunday, January 30 and spent the day in private meetings with each of the three presidential candidates running to replace President Rene Preval, who may be forced to leave office on February 8, even if a replacement has not been selected.
Haiti continues to remain a country on the brink and after preliminary results were announced in December showing that Celestin had beaten out singer Michel Matelly, supports of Martelly shut down the capital and two other major cities with three days worth of violent protests.
