Szef w³oskiego urzêdu zajmuj¹cego siê sytuacjami kryzysowymi skrytykowa³ dzia³anie Amerykanów na Haiti, okreœlaj¹c je jako "¿a³osn¹ pora¿kê". Wed³ug niego Amerykanie prowadz¹ "pró¿ny show dla kamer telewizyjnych" i myl¹ misjê wojskow¹ z misj¹ humanitarn¹". W³ochy zabiegaj¹ o to, ¿eby Guido Bertolaso by³ koordynatorem ca³ej operacji pomocy na Haiti.
For those who do not yet read Polish, this means: The chief of the Italian Crisis Office has criticized the American activities in Haiti, calling them a 'pitiable defeat." According to him, 'the Americans are running an empty show for the television cameras, mistaking a military mission with a one that is humanitarian." Italy is trying to set Guido Bertolaso as the sole coordinator of all help to Haiti. I won't even mention what the French are thinking ... it's worse. On reflection, I will add the French impression, which is sort of amusing: the French simply accuse the Americans of 'invading Haiti': "Le Ministre Français en charge des opérations humanitaires a appelé l'ONU à « clarifier » le rôle des Américains en raison de l'accumulation des effectifs militaires US qui entravent les secours... . « Il s’agit d'aider Haïti, pas d'occuper Haïti," said he. In English, this means: "The French Minister in charge of the humanitarian operations has appealed to the UN 'to clarify' the role of the Americans in view of the accumulation of U.S. military assets obstaculizing the rescue operation ... [...] we should act to help Haiti, not to occupy Haiti."
