Statement by President Jean-Bertrand
Aristide on Hurricane Jeanne
It is with great sadness that I watch reports of the
devastation wrought upon Haiti by hurricane Jeanne.
Gonaives, the cradle of our independence, has suffered
enormously. Mildred and I extend profound sympathies
to every family that has been touched by this tragedy.
Condolences and courage to an entire nation that has
seen much pain and suffering in this tumultuous bicentennial
year. We continue to stand in solidarity with all Haitians
who suffer.
