Haiti: A manmade disaster
14 January 2010652 The Guardian London
Before the devastation of the 12 January earthquake, Haiti was already an economic disaster zone, crippled by centuries-old debt at the hands of its former colonial master – France. A “j’accuse” from Ben Mcintyre in The Times. 
However painstakingly planned out in advance, every EU presidency ends up facing an unforeseen crisis that forces it to reshuffle its priorities and puts its crisis response capabilities to the test. Haiti is turning into the first test of the new EU foreign policy institutions’ ability to take coordinated action.
As the international community scrambles to the aid of Haiti after the January 12th earthquake, Peter Hallward in the Guardian points out its complicity in the island’s enduring economic devastation, which leaves hundreds of thousands all too easily exposed to large-scale natural disaster.
