US pledges further $100 million to Haiti security mission

US Secretary Of State Antony Blinken on Monday said the United States would contribute an additional $100 million to a UN-backed multinational security force intended to help Haitian police fight gangs, as well as $33 million in humanitarian aid.

This brings the United States' proposed contribution to the force to $300 million. As of Monday, less than $11 million had been deposited into the UN's dedicated trust fund.
