As political unrest grows in Haiti, the United Nations warns of an impending humanitarian crisis and dozens of people are killed, there is some good news for Jean Bertrand Aristide: "Global Market Solutions, which is based in Washington, DC, is rallying to the side of [the] beleaguered Haitian president." The PR firm "has promoted Aristide's willingness to talk with the rebels and commitment to democracy." Robert Maguire, Director of International Affairs & Haiti Programs at Trinity College, says "the underlying cause [of the recent violence] is both economic and political." Amnesty International called on "all actors, whether in government, opposition parties or in armed groups... to halt the breakdown in the rule of law."
