US Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton, landed in Port Au Prince, Haiti on Saturday by invitation of the Haitian President, René Préval.
Clinton met with Preval for an hour to discuss the United States' role in support.
"I know of the great resilience and strength of the Haitian people,” said Mrs. Clinton, who in the past visited the country with her husband when they were newlyweds. “You have been severely tested, but I believe that Haiti can come back even stronger and better in the future.”
Along with showing Haiti suport, Mrs. Clinton brought with her supplies, her C-130 plane evacuated 50 Haitian Americans who were stranded here, and to deliver some goods to American diplomats.
US President Obama has pledged to donate 100 million dollars in American aid to the country of Haiti.
