RELIEF AND RECONSTRUCTION EFFORTS
SUMMARY
¶1. Dominican Rebublic (DR) President Leonel Fernandez, on 1/18/10,
hosted a hemispheric preparatory meeting for a future international
conference on elaborating a strategic plan for the reconstruction
of Haiti. He proposed that a coordinating committee be created
made up of Haiti, the DR, CARICOM, the UN, the EU, the OAS, the Rio
Group, the U.S., Canada, Brazil and the Inter-American Development
Bank. Fernandez also proposed that the Canadian initiative to hold
Friends of Haiti meeting in Montreal on 1/25 include the
coordinating committee members and be considered a follow-on to
today's session. At Haitian President Preval's request, the
principal Haiti reconstruction strategy meeting would then be held
in the DR in April, followed by the unveiling of a "Plan of Action"
at the 05/16-18/10 EU-Latin American Summit in Madrid. The
Dominican hosts circulated a draft "Declaration of Santo Domingo,"
which states that the April meeting in the DR will be "convoked" by
the Eureopean Union (seemingly influenced by visiting Spanish Vice
President Maria Teresa Fernandez de la Vega). In addition,
Fernandez suggested that Caribbean nations' debts to the Paris
Club be paid into a Haiti reconstruction fund. The UN rep insisted
that MINUSTAH be in charge of all security in Haiti, with other
foreign military forces limited to humanitarian relief operations,
and stressed that any organizations deploying resources to Haiti be
self-sustaining. WHA A/S Valenzuela spoke on the USG's long-term
commitment to Haiti reconstruction, highlighted SECSTATE's call for
the creation of a Coordination Center in Haiti to manage the
distribution of assistance, noted that the U.S. recognizes
MINUSTAH's primary role in providing security, which our military
forces will support but not supplant, and recognized the efforts of
the DR's government and people in the Haiti relief effort. END
SUMMARY.
¶2. Attendees at the meeting included Haitian President Preval,
Spanish Vice President Fernandez de la Vega (also speaking for the
EU), OAS Secretary General Insulza, CARICOM Chairman Carrington,
the Prime Ministers of Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, Dominica,
Barbados and the Bahamas, high-level diplomatic representatives
from Canada, Brazil, Chile and Mexico, and representatives from the
International Committee of the Red Cross, the United Nations, the
Inter-American Development Bank, and the World Bank. WHA A/S
Arturo Valenzuela headed the U.S. delegation, accompanied by
Charge, USAID Director, Pol-Econ Counselor, Information Officer,
S/P Peter Harrell and PRM Guy Lawson.

¶3. President Fernandez opened the meeting and then called on the
head of each delegation to make a statement. Following these

AND PEACE MISSION IN HAITI EDMUNDO MULET
n UNSYG Moon has requested an additional 1500 police and 2000

duties
n The DR's humanitarian corridor for relief supplies is also very
important
n Agrees on the need for better strategic coordination in
capitals, operational coordination in Port au Prince and tactical
coordination in the field
n MINUSTAH is capable of providing security in Port au Prince and
throughout the country
n Military forces from the U.S., EU, and Canada are coming, and
the UN is preparing memorandum's of understanding with each to
define roles
n These troops can help with distribution of food and supplies
around the country
n UN is considering making different countries responsible for
different geographic areas, with Canada taking over the west, the
U.S. managing distribution in Port au Prince
n This would be akin to the Provincial Reconstruction Teams in
Afghanistan

date
n The UN has made a "flash appeal" for USD 500 million in
assistance, of which some two-thirds has been pledged
n This money needs to be supplied in cash as soon as possible

reconstruction efforts, with payments for work; this will also
promote stability and security
n UNDP is working on an action plan to bring this about
n The UN is working closely with the Haitian Government to define
priorities, and will bring local authorities into the process, as
they know their communities best
n In 15 days, FAO hopes to feed one million people, doubling that
in a month.
n Logistics needs are great, the Port au Prince airport is small
and the humanitarian corridor to Santo Domingo is getting
overloaded, so the UN is looking at establishing a logistics
platform in the Dominican province of Barahona, where there is an
airport
n Assistance to the DR is needed to assist in the establishment of
an efficient humanitarian corridor and move border control points
to locations where they will create fewer bottlenecks
n MINUSTAH would like to establish a permanent office in Santo
Domingo to coordinate these efforts
n All countries, organizations and NGOs sending people to Haiti
must ensure that their deployments are completely self-sustaining,
as Haiti cannot absorb people competing for the scarce resources
there
INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE OF THE RED CROSS - PRESIDENT TABATERU KONOE
n The ICRC is providing safe water to 100,000 people,delivered a
250 bed hospital and is providing 16 emergency response teams,
eight of which have already deployed
n Critical needs include food, water, shelter, psychological
support and security
JAMAICA - PRIME MINISTER BRUCE GOLDING
n The relief efforts administrative challenges must be addressed
under the direction of President Preval and the Haitian Government;
there should be no ambiguity as to who is in charge
n Jamaica offers itself as a logistics platform; Kingston airport
can handle long-haul flights
n One need not mentioned is the care of the large number of
orphans created by the earthquake
n Commitments to Haiti need to be fulfilled this time
CARICOM - SECRETARY EDWIN CARRINGTON
n CARICOM will strengthen its office in Port au Prince
INTER-AMERICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK
n An emergency fund to provide care for 100,000 people has been
established, USD 340 million in non-disbursed funds are at Haiti's
disposition for relief and reconstruction efforts, and USD 110
million in debt will be converted into grants
n These measures will not reduce planned support for Haiti in the
future
FERNANDEZ SUMS UP THE DISCUSSION
¶4. President Fernandez then summed up the discussion and made
comments and proposals of his own as follows:
n There was agreement that Haiti faces immediate and long-term
needs and that improved coordination is needed for both
n A central coordinating center is needed in Haiti to channel
international assistance efficiently, and the possibility of
creating geographic zones of responsibility needs to be explored
n Proposes that a Coordination Committee be formed to develop a
strategic plan for Haitian reconstruction and development
n Adds that this Coordination Committee be made up of Haiti, the
DR, CARICOM, the UN, the EU, the OAS, the Rio Group, the United
States, Canada, Brazil and the IDB (when the Mexican rep asked if
his country could be added, Fernandez replied that they would be
present as head of the Rio Group)
n Suggests that the 01/25 ministerial meeting in Montreal serve as
a follow-up to the 01/18 conference, and that all members of the
Coordination Committee be invited to participate
n Proposes that the DR host another conference in April, at which
the Coordination Committee will present its recommendations, adding
that Haitian President Preval suggested that this meeting be held
in the DR
n Proposes that a Plan of Action be adopted at or on the margins
of the 05/16-18/10 EU-Latin America Summit in Madrid
n Estimates that Haiti will require USD two billion a year for the
next five years
n Proposes that one way to raise part of this money is to have all
Caribbean countries pay their debt service on Paris Club loans into
a Haiti Development Fund
n Agreement that Haiti needs assistance in consolidating its
democratic institutions and in developing food self-sufficiency,
which will require assistance to the agricultural sector in
addition to the recognized need for aid to rebuild schools,
hospitals, ports, electricity generation, telecommunications and
the tourism infrastructure
n The DR is honored to become part of MINUSTAH and is looking at
building up its logistic capabilities at Barahona and at the Jimani
border crossing
SPANISH VP SEEKS TO CEMENT CONCLUSIONS IN DECLARATION
¶5. Spanish VP Fernandez de la Vega seconded Fernandez's
conclusions and proposals regarding the formation of a Coordination
Committee and the scheduling and location of future conferences
(although she did not refer to the Dominican President's debt
proposals) and stated that they should be incorporated in a
"Declaration of Santo Domingo." There was no vote on the Spanish
VP's proposal and no one spoke out for or against it, and the
meeting then concluded. Subsequently, the GoDR hosts distributed
the text of this Declaration to attendees, although none were asked
to sign it.
TEXT OF DECLARATION
¶6. Begin informal Embassy translation of operative text of
Declaration (full Spanish text has been scanned and emailed to
Haiti Task Force and WHA/CAR):
(description of Haiti earthquake and aftermath)
The Government and the people of Hait are and should continue being
the principal protagonists of the reconstruction of their country
and of their collective destiny. But it is the responsibility of
the international community to offer all of its help to convert the
incertitude in confidence and skepticism in a vision of its shared
future.
For all of the above, the countries and organizations present in
this meeting agree to promote the holding of an international
conference that will have as its objective the elaboration of a
Strategic Plan for the Reconstruction of Haiti that, in addition to
emergency assistance, will contribute to reinforce in the medium-
and long-term the social, economic and political viability and
stability of Haiti.
The conference will be convoked by the European Union and
celebrated in the Dominican Republic.
A Coordination Committee, made up of Haiti, the Dominican Republic,
CARICOM, the United Nations, the European Union, the Organization
of American States, the Rio Group, the United Staets, Canada,
Brazil and the Inter-American Development Bank, created to this
effect will develop the organization of said activity that will
hold its first meeting on January 25 in Canada.
A working group designated by this committee will elaborate a
proposed Strategic Plan that will be submitted for debate in the
first plenary meeting that that will be based on three points: the
Millennium Objectives, the "National Strategic Document for Growth
and Poverty Reduction 2008-2010," and the World Bank document known
as "Options and Opportunities for Haiti"
At the same time, it is agreed to propose to the G-20 that at its
next meeting it studies the creation of a fund for the
reconstruction of Haiti, taking into account experiences, such as
the Iraq fund.
The globalized world in which we live demands from us answers that
are also global. The countries and organizations present in this
meeting believe that the future of Haiti merits that the
international community combine its efforts.
The Haitian crisis has again reaffirmed that in our globalized
world no only government but also citizens feel that nothing that
occurs to someone else is foreign to us. We can and should
construct a more just and human world.
For thousands of Haitians this tragedy has been an end, it is our
responsibility that for millions of citizens of this and other
continents that it be a new beginning.
End text.
COMMENT
¶7. President Fernandez, with the cooperation of Haitian President

Haitian relief and reconstruction. Septel will report on A/S
Valenzuela's subsequent separate private discussions with Fernandez
and with Spanish VP Fernandez de la Vega on this and other topics.
