U.S. Troops to Help Haiti Security

PORT-AU-PRINCE (Reuters) - U.S. troops will help U.N. peacekeepers keep order on Haiti's increasingly lawless streets, the country's president said on Sunday as aid workers struggled to get food and medical assistance to desperate earthquake survivors.

World leaders have pledged massive assistance to rebuild Haiti after the massive quake killed as many as 200,000 people, but five days into the crisis food distribution and medical assistance were only just starting to get to those in need.

Hundreds of thousands of hungry Haitians have been waiting for help, many of them in makeshift camps on streets strewn with debris and decomposing bodies.

Logistical logjams have slowed the delivery of medical and food supplies for the wounded, hungry and homeless but there were signs of progress on Sunday as international medical teams took over damaged hospitals and clinics where seriously injured and sick people had lain untreated for days.

Rescue teams also raced against time to free survivors from the rubble of collapsed buildings in the wrecked capital, Port-au-Prince,

Haitian President Rene Preval told reporters 3,500 U.S. troops would be deployed to help the hard-pressed and depleted U.N. and Haitian forces restore security in the capital.

"We are here principally for a humanitarian assistance operation, but security is a critical component ... we are going to have to address the situation, the security," Lieutenant General Ken Keen, commander of the U.S. military operation in Haiti, told ABC's "This Week".
