The Organization of American States (OAS), in cooperation with the Canadian government, donated 90 Kawasaki KLX 300 and KLR 650 motorcycles, as well as significant logistical equipment, to the Haitian National Police (PNH) to strengthen police deployment in various contexts of intervention against armed gangs.

As part of this equipment transfer, Cristobal Dupouy, Representative of the OAS Secretary General in Haiti, discussed institutional cooperation with Vladimir Paraison, Acting Director General of the HNP. Topics discussed included structural reforms, modernizing the police's operational capabilities, addressing current security challenges, and improving police officers' social benefits.

It should be noted that to address the critical situation of violence in Haiti, the PNH has acquired various equipment and vehicles, either directly or through donations from foreign governments and international organizations. Major contributors include the United Nations (UN) and the governments of Canada, the United States, France, and Taiwan (Republic of China).
