Haiti’s government condemns Donald Trump’s “disparaging comments” during Tuesday’s presidential debate.
Trump repeated claims that immigrants from Haiti are eating people’s pets in the state of Ohio.
“Unfortunately, this is not the first time that foreign nationals have fallen victim to disinformation campaigns, been dehumanized and stigmatized to serve political ends,” the Haitian government said in a statement.
When moderator David Muir refuted his claims, Trump insisted he had “seen people on TV” saying their dog had been eaten.
“We strongly deny these statements, which undermine the dignity of our citizens and, by extension, may endanger their lives,” says the Haitian government.
It was in a local Facebook group for residents of the city of Springfield, Ohio, that false claims began to spread about Haitian immigrants eating pets.
