The Security Council, of the United Nations, passes UNSC Resolution 940 directing the United states to engage in regime change in Haiti. This begins the U.s.’ 20th attempt—the second in Haiti—at nation-building.
NOTE: While “nation-building is a laudable goal, Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution for the united States says that “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government”; it does NOT state that “The United States shall guarantee to every nation on this planet a Republican Form of Government” [emphasis added].
