For this author, the sending of Latin American troops to Haiti in 2004 was an unhappy decision from the beginning. The meager achievements in public order have shown the limits of this complex and risky military mission. Indeed, political murders continued, the difficulty in dismantling paramilitary groups persisted, and establishing a climate of minimum coexistence became next impossible. In spite of the paltry results in terms of assistance and financial help promised by several countries and institutions, and of the deplorable social conditions generated by hurricanes, the UN Security Council insisted basically in a military solution to the calamitous economic and political situation in Haiti. This article enumerates the errors committed, revises the Argentinean intervention in Haiti, and assesses the situation up to 2005.

Palabras clave : Haiti; intervention; UN; Argentina.
