Haiti needs to curb violence, says visiting U.N. chief

U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan visited Haiti and called for the local government to be more active in combating violence. Annan, who met with President Rene Preval, said Haitian police are “inadequately trained” and “infiltrated by criminal elements.

Annan arrived in the Dominican Republic a few hours ago and will meet with President Leonel Fernandez.
