PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) - Haiti is considering the creation of a security force to one day replace U.N. peacekeepers sent three years ago to stabilize the troubled country.
A special commission named by President Rene Preval will decide whether such a force should take the form of a reconstituted military or act as a supporting unit of Haiti's outgunned police, said Sen. Yuri Latortue, president of the Senate commission on justice and security, on Thursday.
Preval is expected to appoint the commission next week and the commission's report would be due eight months later, Latortue said.
