Pressure Drop
Corn, David | May 30, 1994 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the shift in U.S. president, Bill Clinton's Haiti policy. The shift in Haiti policy includes a revision in the handling of refugees, harsher sanctions and the naming of former U.S. Representative, William Gray, as the new special adviser on Haiti. Human rights activists in Washington and advocates of deposed President Jean-Bertrand Aristide worry that Clinton's latest steps are designed mostly to provide political cover. Administration officials maintain that the new refugee policy will not increase the small number of Haitians granted political asylum.
