SashulF [63]3 years ago
3 0

Haiti became a focus of interest for the great powers in the early twentieth century mainly because of the country's strategic location. Competition among the United States, Germany, France, and Britain resulted in the breaching of Haiti's sovereignty and the nineteen-year occupation by United States forces.

Haiti has maintained a long-standing relationship with the United States. Haitians have perceived economic ties to the United States as vital. The United States was Haiti's primary trading partner for both exports and imports, its most important source of foreign assistance, and the primary target of Haitian emigration. A large number of private voluntary agencies from the United States functioned in Haiti. The assembly industry of Port-au-Prince was closely tied to the United States economy. In short, the economic and the political influence of the United States in Haiti was more powerful than the influence of any other country.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of legalising baby bins?
yan [13]
There are ADVANTAGE of legalizing baby bins or baby hatches which are typically used to leave the newborn babies by their parent who do not want them for certain reasons and abandon them there.
This can save many lives of the newborns as the other way people might choose is killing the babies or abandoning them at places where no one might ever find them.
The baby left there will have a positive opportunity to flourish in the society unlike the one left at street as the hatches are monitored by law.

There can be some DISADVANTAGES as well to the scheme as it might help promote immoral behaviors in society. A key factor in stopping immoral activities is the fear of society, and baby bins remove that fear. Another risk can be of an increasing tendency of rapes where people might think its OK to give birth to children and then leave them to baby bins.
