Jean-Pierre Lacroix, Under-Secretary-General for Peacekeeping Operations, addressed the UN Security Council saying: "Haiti has come a long way to achieve the relative political and security stability it is now enjoying, but persistent economic uncertainties, which can result in social exclusion, particularly of youth and the most vulnerable, may undermine this progress."
