''For the current UN mission to Haiti, see the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti''. The United Nations Mission in Haiti (UNMIH) — a peacekeeping operation carried out by the United Nations between September 1993 and June 1996. The Mission was reestablished (''MINUSTAH'') in April 2004, after a rebellion took over most of Haiti and President Bertrand Aristide resigned.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Haiti - MINUSTAH - Facts and Figures ) 〕 Aristide controversially contends that he was forced from office and kidnapped into exile by agents of the United States.〔(Democracy Now! | Exclusive: Aristide and His Bodyguard Describe the U.S. Role In His Ouster )〕 == Historical background == For most of the Cold War (from 1946 to 1986), Haiti was under dictatorial rule. After the February 1986 military ouster of Jean-Claude Duvalier, Haiti was ruled by a series of short-lived provisional governments (five presidents in six administrations from 1986 to 1991). The country's first democratic national election was held on 16 December 1990, and saw Jean-Bertrand Aristide elected president. Aristide assumed power on 7 February 1991, but was toppled by a military coup a few months later. On September 23, 1993, UNMIH was established by the United Nations Security Council under Resolution 867. The first multinational force was sent to Haiti in 1994 which was made of 20,000 members.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://minustah.org/?page_id=7858 )〕 Their goal was to help reform different aspects of their society that has been broken down over the many years of corruption. There has been many different groups located in different areas in Haiti designated to help certain aspects of society. The United Nations chooses qualified professionals from around that world who will play a role in the aid of the country. From the 1993 to the current mission ongoing now, the UN’s years of service in Haiti have made many positive contributions to the progress of the country. In the early years of the UN’s involvement in Haiti many great contribution were made to the benefit of Haiti. They successfully underwent a shift in government without any major issues. Much great progress was made in stability of the country’s economic situation from the presence of the strong UN force. The UN helped restore a certain amount of democracy to the country with the shift between two democratically elected presidents. The UN completed many successful missions from the years of 1994-2000.〔 February 2004 marks the reinstatement of the UN peace mission known as "Mission des Nation Unies pour la Stabilisation en Haiti" more commonly known as MINUSTAH. Earlier that month, the country of Haiti was experiencing conflict in the city of Gonavies which then lead to armed fights breaking out throughout the country causing a loss of control by the Haitian government. This uprising consumed a great deal of the city and shortly after the President Aristide and Prime Minister stepped down from these positions and an acting president, Boniface Alexandre took control.〔 After the resignations of the known leaders, the following backlash and conflict from the country posed a threat to the peace and security of other countries the UN decides to restate the peace mission in Haiti, now going under the name MINUSTAH. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「United Nations Mission in Haiti」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
