Port-au-Prince is now a patchwork of territories whose brutal leaders - largely free of political influence - are now free to operate as they please, warring over territory and revenging on each-other in what has become an ever-escalating spiral of violence.
Most of the city is controlled by G-9, a coalition of ten gangs, which is led by Jimmy 'Barbecue' Chérizier - a former police officer who led his own Delmas 6 gang while still in the force but who now focuses on crime full-time.
Mr Shapps said a decision on whether to add Greece to the list would have to wait until at least July 15 when the government in Athens will decide whether to lift its restrictions on travellers from the UK.
Mr Johnson, 80, a former member of the European Parliament who voted Remain in Britain's 2016 referendum, told RTL radio he wanted to become a French citizen because of his strong family links to France.
My mother was born in France, her mother was totally French as was her grandfather. And that makes me very happy,' Stanley told the radio station in French. So for me it is about reclaiming what I already have.
Though many of Haiti's gangs are involved in traditional underworld activities such as drug running and gun smuggling, many control large parts of the country's regular economy - factories, airports, power grids and business districts.
The nation is facing its largest anti-government protests since the Tiananmen Square massacre after activists filled the streets to openly call for an end to the rule of President Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
As a Greek news website branded Stanley Johnson's trip 'unbelievable', MPs urged Boris Johnson to explain why his father appears to be bound by a 'different set of rules' to those imposed on ordinary holidaymakers.
More than 400,000 sunseekers are thought to have had their Greek holidays ruined by government delays in relaxing the global travel warning, along with Greece's decision to ban direct flights from the UK until July 15.
Speaking from his mountain-view villa in Pelion - which he lets out to tourists - Mr Johnson said Greek officials were happy to allow him in and the ban only seemed to apply to ‘bulk arrivals' of British holidaymakers.
Mr Johnson said on Wednesday night: 'I'm in Pelion on essential business trying to Covid-proof my property in view of the upcoming letting season. I need to set up distancing measures at the property because they're taking it very seriously here.'
Speaking in the Commons, Liberal Democrat Alistair Carmichael said: 'This is simply further evidence that when it comes to following the rules, it is one rule for Pelion escorted tours the Conservatives and one rule for everyone else.
One protester, Pelion greece taxi fare to airport a woman in her 20s, said: 'I'm here for my future. I'm not scared because we're not doing anything wrong, we're not breaking any laws.
Everyone's working hard for a better tomorrow.' You have to fight for your own future.
We do not consider this a credible explanation.' 'It is very worrying that one of our journalists was attacked in this way whilst carrying out his duties.
We have had no official explanation or apology taxi from Meteora to delphi the Chinese authorities, beyond a claim by the officials who later released him that they had arrested him for his own good in case he caught Covid from the crowd.
In one ten-day orgy of violence in the capital Port-au-Prince back in July, 300 people were killed and at least 50 women and girls were subjected to rapes - many of which happened in front of their young children.
President Moise was said to have benefited from this, including allegations that he allowed G-9 - now the country's largest coalition of gangs - impunity in the capital provided they targeted his political opponents.
The university in the Chinese capital is the latest public location to be rocked by unprecedent civil unrest and demonstrations on a scale unseen since the infamous Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 which ended in hundreds of deaths when the army was deployed to quell the uprising.
The US and Canada have been leading efforts to stem the spread of the gangs, sending armoured vehicles for the country's police force and extraditing the leader of the 400 Mawozo gang - Germine 'Yonyon' Joly - to an American jail last year.
Unable to find stable jobs, many were recruited into gangs which were steadily growing in influence and Pelion guided tour power beginning around 2018, Pelion greece taxi fare to airport according to the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organised Crime.
Shocking videos shared on social media show Edward Lawrence, a camera operator for the BBC's China Bureau, being dragged away by Xi's officers as he desperately screams 'Call the consulate now' to a friend.
Protests have sprung up across Shanghai and Beijing in the wake of a deadly fire as anger grows among the many blaming the deaths on strict lockdowns preventing emergency services from reaching the victims in time.
Into that power vacuum have moved hundreds of highly organised and extremely violent criminal groups which often have links to politicians and taxi service Meteora greece police - meaning they are free to kidnap, murder and commit atrocities such as gang rapes at will.
