Former Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide has been in exile for 7 years from his home country. He plans to head back to Haiti from South Africa, but his return will be just before the presidential elections. He fears that the new administration may reject his Visa, and he has stated that he has no interest to run for president. He states that he wants to get his medical school up and running to help Haiti recover from the devastating 2010 earthquake. Aristide was removed from his office in 2004 by bloody revolts from street gangs and soldiers, which is why his return could cause potential revolts or conflicts. What is certain is that he plans to return prior to the next presidential elections that begin on March 20th.
