The U.S. envoy to the United Nations traveled to Haiti on Monday, a month after the first contingent of Kenyan police arrived in the Caribbean country as part of an international security mission aimed at tackling gang violence.

Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield will make two “major announcements during the trip in support of efforts to address the security and humanitarian emergency,” a senior administration official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Thomas-Greenfield met with the transition council, according to a pool reporter traveling with the ambassador. The ambassador said they had a productive discussion on how to improve security.
