Haiti offers surprising little cholera news on this New Year's Eve morning, but via HaitiLibre.com we have a letter from US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton: Haiti - USA : Wishes for the independence of Haiti and New Year.
Despite all Haiti has endured, Haitians have shown an unflagging strength, will, and passion to forge ahead and build a more prosperous nation. The people and Government of the United States stand firmly with the people of Haiti, and we are committed to helping ensure that your voice determines the way forward for your nation and government. We will continue deepening the partnership and friendship between our nations to achieve a brighter future for all our people.
I wish all Haitians a happy Independence Day and New Year. I look forward to working with you to make 2011 a year filled with peace and progress.
