On Tuesday, November 4th, 2025, Laurent Saint-Cyr, President pro tempore and Coordinator of the Transition Council, speaking at the 2nd World Summit for Social Development in Qatar, called for international mobilization to restore security in Haiti.

"I specifically called on all States to make effective contributions to the Gang Supression Force (FRG), approved by the United Nations Security Council on September 30th," stated Laurent Saint-Cyr.

"Making the Gang Repression Force operational as soon as possible, while learning from the experience of the Multinational Security Support Mission, is an imperative of international solidarity, fully in line with the spirit of this Summit. The social development that the Haitian people and people around the world deserve requires peace, stability, and security," the President declared from this important platform.

The President reiterated the Transition Council's commitment to restoring security, with the support of international partners, and to preparing free and credible elections to meet the legitimate aspirations of the Haitian people.

Furthermore, on the sidelines of the Summit, President Saint-Cyr met with Chris Elmore, Under-Secretary of State of the United Kingdom.

During their discussions, Saint-Cyr reiterated the crucial importance of restoring security for the success of the transition and advocated for the swift implementation of the Foreign Relations Guarantee (FRG), an essential condition for holding free and credible elections and returning to democratic order.

President Saint-Cyr also requested British support in the maritime domain to curb the illicit flow of arms into Haiti, as well as increased cooperation in maritime surveillance and intelligence sharing to contribute to restoring security in the country.

Undersecretary Elmore expressed the United Kingdom's concern regarding the humanitarian situation in Haiti and commended the efforts undertaken by the Transitional Government to address it. He also indicated his country's interest in supporting the training of national security forces within the framework of the FRG.
