If the US wants fewer Haitian refugees, it should stop destroying Haiti
b'Last week, onlookers in the US and around the world were horrified to see US Border Patrol\\u2019s inhumane treatment of Haitian refugees attempting to cross the US-Mexico border to seek asylum. Committing \\u201chuman rights violations\\u201d that have been condemned worldwide, US Border Patrol and the Biden administration are denying thousands of Haitians their internationally recognized right to seek asylum and utilizing a despicable Trump-era policy to mass expel refugees\\u2014with truly dizzying scope and speed\\u2014back to the same country it marked for Temporary Protected Status only months ago. This whole saga has made clear once again that the cruelty of US \\u201cimmigration policy\\u201d and enforcement is unabashedly bipartisan. Moreover, it is a reminder that Haitians will continue to be denied basic humanitarian support from countries like the US which are directly and indirectly responsible for many of the crises plaguing Haiti.
