The United Nations Security Council on Monday unanimously adopted a resolution to extend the mandate of the United Nations Integrated Office in Haiti (BINUH) until January 31, 2026. The decision reflects the international community’s commitment to support Haiti as it navigates political instability and ongoing crises.
Established in 2019, BINUH plays a crucial role in advising the Haitian government on promoting political stability and good governance. The extension aims to bolster efforts in addressing the root causes of the nation’s challenges, including rising violence and humanitarian concerns affecting millions.
“The United Nations remains steadfast in its support for the people of Haiti,” stated a representative from the Security Council. “Extending BINUH’s mandate will continue to assist in fostering peace, security, and development in the country.”
Haiti has been grappling with social and political turmoil following recent events that have compounded existing difficulties. The extended UN mission seeks to provide much-needed assistance in coordinating international efforts to rebuild and stabilize the nation.
The unanimous decision underscores the urgency of the situation in Haiti and the necessity for continued global support to facilitate a path toward recovery and sustainable development.
