The UK has not discussed with the US Government the transfer to Florida of four individuals from Haiti which forms part of ongoing US legal proceedings against those suspected of criminal activities undertaken in the USA, linked to the assassination of Haitian President Jovenel Moise. We maintain a broad dialogue with the US Government on developments in Haiti at all levels and welcome efforts to bring those suspected of involvement in the assassination of President Moïse to justice, both in Haiti and internationally. This abhorrent act undermined the Haitian people's right to determine their own future democratically.
