Bush and Clinton

Question 7 • EAP-Virginia and US History B CR

How did President Clinton react when military leaders in Haiti overthrew Aristide?

Answer
A
He threatened to invade Haiti if Aristide wasn’t returned to power.
B
He offered to extend American citizenship to Aristide.
C
He immediately sent US troops to Haiti.
D
He withdrew American troops from Haiti.

Explanation

Clinton opposed the military leaders who had ousted Aristide and pressured them to restore him to power. When diplomatic efforts failed, he threatened U.S. military intervention; American troops later entered Haiti in 1994, and Aristide returned. So the best answer is A, not that troops were sent immediately after the overthrow.
